How to Stop the Awful Double Spacing When Composing Emails

Post by RosieRose »

When I compose an email, and hit the return key to start a new line, the space jumps a line and goes two lines. I'd like to change this, and only jump ONE line down, please and thank you, and on a permanent basis.

How do I change the email settings so there's only a one line jump when composing an email?

Try menu path Tools->Options->Composition->General->uncheck the option to "Use Paragraph format instead of Body Text by default."

OMG, how rude of me. I never returned to thank you for your prompt response. Thank you for your time and expertise. I do appreciate your efforts.
