Hello again (using OE 6),
Trying not to belabor the group with this point; seems many have more
serious problems to discuss. I'm talking about seeing threads that look like
this:

How can this be avoided without doctoring it up with eCleaner (which I've
always used) or StripMail (which I just downloaded to see how it works)? I
thought all that we were supposed to do (btw, I'm get the digest version of
PCWorks), is click reply, remove the postings that are not related,
<snip><snip> if needed, add the new text before or after the thread (that's
not my point), and all is well.
But all is NOT well if the thread looks like what you see above. If
doctoring the threads up with eCleaner or whatever, is necessary, then no
problem, that's what we'll do. I was just wondering if there is a way to
just click reply, insert new text (which always looks good), and the thread
would look as good as the new text without eCleaner etc. No matter how I
adjust the width of the window, I still see a "scattered" paragraph. If you
can, Clint, please explain in more detail what you are saying in the
following two paragraphs:
"That just depends on how you have OE setup ("Read" settings and how wide
your
preview window is), and, on how the sender is typing (whether or not they
hit
the [enter] key and their line wrap settings.
You can drag the vertical separator bar that separates the preview/read
email from the folder list, left or right to change how most text is
displayed in emails. Too small of an area to the right and text lines will
be of different length."
You'll note that these I just copied/pasted so they look like what a
paragraphs should look like. Had I used a eCleaner or StripMail or any of
the other fixer-uppers which are available, those paragraphs above would be
stretching out like all new text in this email is word wrapping. ... Harold
