Different parts of the problem lie with senders and receivers and 
their email software. Tower Talk, and most email lists, use plain 
text, NOT html. 

When corresponding with an email list, your email software should be 
set for NO html formatting. Your software should also be set to 
insert line breaks for something on the order of 60-72 characters 
per line. Good email software allows that. The lines that go on 
forever are caused by email software that is not inserting line 
breaks, and by the reading software not "wrapping" incoming lines. 

For many years, I've used PMMail, a very nice email app that started 
out life in OS2, then expanded to the Windoze world. It does all of 
these stuff quite nicely. There are several good alternatives.
