All, I know this borders being a vim question, but I was hoping for some clarification on why my emails look strange on some clients.
As a software developer I use vim every day without issue; here are the relevant settings that may be causing my heartache: " autocomment, set formatoptions " " t = autowrap to textwidth " c = autowrap to textwidth, add comment leader " r = auto-comment after <enter> " o = auto-comment with 'o' or 'O' " q = allow formating of comments with 'gq' " l = don't format existing lines " n = format numbered lists " 2 = auto-indent based on second line of paragraph " 1 = don't break lines after a one-letter word; break before set formatoptions=tcroqln21 set textwidth=78 With this, my code generally wraps at textwidth. I had not noticed until recently but when viewing my sent emails via my iPhone mail app, my messages are appearing strangely formatted. Here's an example: -->8-- Hi Friend, So the plan is to carpool on Sunday to Vegas, then on Wednesday back to the <erroenous linebreak> office? --8<-- I suspect the erroneous linebreak is because vim is force wrapping the text. Is the answer to not wrap at all? It would be nice to see my emails wrap _visually_, even if the message itself is _not_ wrapping under the hood. I don't see this wordwrap problem when viewing the emails in Outlook or the Outlook Web App (yuck!). Any thoughts on how to best configure vim for my use case? Cheers!
