Re: [Elecraft] A request for CR's
I just went to the web archive and paged through several threads with both IE and Firefox, and none of them required horizontal scrolling. I have a 22 monitor, and the browsers are full screen. QTH.net seemed to preserve the formatting quite well. Mike NF4L On 9/14/2010 10:28 AM, Barry wrote: Hi all, I'm new to the list, having just purchased a K3.

Re: [Elecraft] A request for CR's
Unfortunately, a lot of GUI email programs are broken in that way. They assumed because people in GUI environments treat newline as end of paragraph, that was how internet email was supposed to work. There are, however, newer standards, which try to give the best of both worlds and clients that use them. Thunderbird may have its faults, but it does wrap the actual send mail at about 72 characters. It mains paragraph wrapping in compatible readers by using a special header and an associated convention that lines ending in space have soft newlines. I hope QTH.net gets this one right, even though it will reflow on a compatible client. Mike wrote: The biggest problem with that is defining at what point the line ends.. :-P .
