Since you said so, I CC:'d the list so they'll know I'm not the only
one who's paranoid... =8^) I mean, so the developers will know others
find this feature desireable. I hope you don't mind...

Ah... Ancient Chinese secret! Well, maybe not. I use xemacs as my
mail editor, and post mode which someone was kind enough to tell me
about (though I'm not sure it's required for that feature). M-1 M-q
will fully justify your paragraphs. As it happens, I discovered that
feature by accident when my finger slipped. :) Xemacs does
everything! (probably too much, actually.) I haven't figured out how
to make it automatically justify, so I do it manually for each
paragraph, which is o.k. for short e-mails...

Yeah... I switched computers, and have no .sig file on this one, so I
typed it by hand... :) Mutt does the right thing if you've got a sig
file. Sorry.
