Forwarded E-mails Not Being Word Wrapped

Post by dougjp »

This is a nuisance thing and I'm hoping someone can tell me a solution for it. Every time my wife forwards me an e-mail she got, word wrap doesn't happen on the forwarded e-mail text. Word wrap does work on simple incoming e-mails. My settings in about:config includes 'mail.wrap_long_lines - TRUE'

With what software is your wife forwarding the messages? Are they arriving as plain text or HTML formatted messages?

She also uses Thunderbird and both of us have the box ticked at its default setting in Options, Send Options; 'send messages as plain text if possible'. Is unticking that box the solution? How does it affect other e-mail behavior?
