[GRLUG] Just for Bob

I prefer to let the email recipient handle line length rather than try to
guess what he wants while I'm writing. If you want lines 65 characters long,
then set your email client to wrap it there. If you want lines that span all
available space (like I do), then maximize the reading area. I've 1600x1200
here, so I don't want a 2" wide column of words with 8" of whitespace next
to it! Also it is annoying if you're reading at 50 columns and your sender
has new lines every 65 columns so you get a normal line followed by a short
line. Are there any modern email clients that won't wrap text automatically?
