We're in agreement there. I'm saying that the
line-wrapping should
(and pretty much always has, all the way back to the BBS days) happen on
the SENDING end. Email isn't a "format it any way you want to READ it"
medium like the WWW was intended to be (but really isn't). It's a
"format it any way you want to WRITE it" medium.
If hard-wrapped E-mail is bad, then I guess I'm a perpetual offender. you could just use vi and sendmail.
Actually, yes (well, elm).
Don't people ever change their mind
and have to insert/delete text? Then what,
rejigger all the lines by hand? Surely you don't
still do that?
Actually, yes.
And I'm not kidding.
