That group excludes me.
Me too. +10 if I had that many votes. If I am to read a log, and that log contains lines 200 characters long, most of our email readers /can/ handle that, so PLEASE turn off the word-wrap in your email agent long enough to post a log unmolested by senseless word-wrapping. That is a huge help to those of us who might be interested in helping. Word-wrap it so it makes no sense, and I'll just hit the + key (kmail) to go on to the next message.
