Re-reading this thread again (with a copy of the manual on the side), I'm lost. The way I read the manual all these settings only matter when displaying a message that has been received; the message itself is never changed by them. So, why and how would it matter if _Grady_ set his *wrap* variables? Isn't that something for Patrick to do, if Patrick wants Grady's message to display in a particular way? The only way I can see Grady can influence the appearance of his _outgoing_ messages is with text_flowed, and then with his editor. -- Please *no* private copies of mailing list or newsgroup messages.
