I agree completely.

I've thought and deliberated over this issue for years of using e-mail
clients and TB! handles things the right way.
If things are done the right way, why ask for an option to do it the
wrong way? :=) I cannot think of a situation where someone would
genuinely wish to have their document *reformatted* with hard returns
included and not care what it looks like before the recipient receives
it. This is what TB! offers you. It's depressing that so many other
clients fall short in this regard.
If you wish to send messages with paragraphs containing no hard
returns, for DTP processing, then that material should really be sent
as an attachment.
This sounds like I'm being imposing but it's not intended. I just feel
strongly about it. If you don't agree, simply ignore me and don't
forget the disclaimer in my signature. :=))
