Peter, Nobody here would appreciate it if I tested it by sending out multiple copies of each email to see if the same message wraps differently.
I am using a fairly standard mailer in Outlook that interfaces with gmail and I could try mailing directly from gmail but apparently there are systemic problems and I experience other complaints when sending directly from AOL mail too. So, if some people don't read me, I can live with that. I mean the right people, LOL! Or did I get that wrong? I do appreciate the feedback. Ironically, when I politely shared how someone else's email was displaying on my screen, it seems I am equally causing similar issues for others. An interesting question is whether any of us reading the archived copies see different things including with various browsers: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/ I am not sure which letters from me had the anomalies you mention but spot-checking a few of them showed a normal display when I use Chrome. But none of this is really a python issue except insofar as you never know what functionality in the network was written for in python. -----Original Message----- From: Python-list <python-list-bounces+avi.e.gross=gmail....@python.org> On Behalf Of Peter J.

Hmm, since I was now paying a bit more attention to formatting problems I saw that only about half of your messages have those long lines although all seem to be sent with the same mailer. Don't know what's going on there. hp -- _ | Peter J.
