Columns mixed up in transmitting e-mails
Hi, I am running Windows 7, with SeaMonkey IMAP e-mail. When I carefully type and send an e-mail, with some important data in columns, the received message has the columns all mixed up, so that the data are often illegible. This just happened again when I was trying to make dates with a pretty girl pianist to go to classical music concerts with me. What can I do to have the e-mail received in exactly the same format as when I send it? Thanks.

A few of the things I do about this problem: 1. Delete the Avast spam and stop sending it. 2. Use a fixed width font. 3. Put a period and / or two tab spaces at the end of each line if the line is not wrapped. 4. Send to myself first to see what it will look like, then adjust as needed and resend to myself. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
