Hello Angela;
It's good to see you're still in operation!
I've noticed not only do such bulletins without word wrapping come from some
internet based systems but also from various Windows-based clients. I've
received pmsg from guys who use such clients as RMS Express and Winpack.
I've received mail over 5K in characters all on 1 single line. Fortunetly
for me, I pull pmail via Evolution and then have to format the mail so that
the lines get word wrapped otherwise I simply ignore them. Some mail if
they contain certain windows-based characters I don't even bother with
converting.
Classic packet was never designed IMHO to be GUI based. It was designed as
a dumb terminal system. This is meant to be cross platform compatable.
These GUI systems that inject their controls into mail I have no use for
nor any patience to sort out their ignorance for not following standard
protocol procedures that have been in place for decades.
I hope you are well my friend!
