I think that I have solved the issue. And indeed, it was my signature. In my signature, I had included a horizontal line with a width of 100%. I have now set this to 500 pixels, which seems to take care of my problem. Thank you all for the suggestions! Best, Rudy. On di, 2013-10-15 at 13:55 +020

What happens is indeed that the text is displayed on one long line, where a scroll-bar appears at the bottom. I would like it indeed to wrap a the edge of the window, regardless of the windows-size. I think in plain-text mails it is a hard-warp, while in the html-wrap that I would prefer, it would
