Sorry to spam this thread, Paul TT, you've got to fix your mailer already, 
make it NOT wrap quoted lines somehow, which is extremely annoying. If you 
don't realize, on most mailers all lines starting with '> ' are colored in 
some way, in all your mails there are many annoying wraps which make your 
mails very hard to read, hard to see which parts of the mail you wrote and 
which are just wrapped lines gone mad.
