Looks okay, but you seem to have sent this one directly through my system.
Are you hard wrapping in this original message? If not, something on my end
is altering it.

I can't see this as possible, though.. as Mark Lewis's messages are
arriving here without any kind of hard wrapping, and I am not doing any
specific hard wrapping here either on what I type. My current putty
window's width is 160, and while your message seemed to be formatted in
less than 80 columns, what I'm writing right now is using all 160. Every
message that I read from Mark is also using all 160 columns.

Regards,
Nick
