DH>MM>Is anyone else experiencing a formatting problem when using WinOLX
DH>MM>v1.00a to read Silver Express Mail packets (QWK)? When I load the mail
DH>MM>packed it seems that the messages don't wrap at the end of the line,
DH>MM>they just run out to the right about 120 characters and get cut off.
DH>MM>Any suggestions?
DH>Just a suggestion - it is not in WinOLX, but rather the way the packet
DH>is received from Silver Express.  You need to go to your settings in the
DH>BBS and tell it you want to zip it and receive it as Q-Modem.  There is
DH>something else, but I can't remember what.  Maybe you can try contacting
DH>the sysop of the BBS.
Did not find an option to zip and receive a Q-Modem but did find an
option to have the mailer "word-wrap" which seems to have taken care of
the problem. Of course, it was not a problem for OLX 1.53 (DOS) version,
just Windoze version.
Thanks.
Later...
