Well, you're unemployed, so I guess we can conclude
that you're stupid.

Horvath,
Just a note: I am set up for plain text with return in the format that =

you also use plain text and that will eliminate the problem you seem to =

I think it's in negative territory and getting worse.

Maybe so, but your text still extends as far as the window will allow (or
beyond the window, if I understand Horvath correctly). Your output doesn't
have the standard line length of something like 76 characters. I suggest you
have a look at your plain text settings and change the encoding from "Quoted
Printable" to "None".

I'm not sure that I agree with that.

A quick look at his message properties will show that he's using plain text,
with 7bit encoding - probably one of the most basic, frill-free message
formats available.

Whatever....her stuff reads just fine, always has. Strikes me it's the

Wally...I'm not changing my settings to make Horvath's life any easier =
or more pleasant. Since when is being trolled supposed to be a pleasant =
experience? He can suffer or he can put me on KF....either option is =
equally agreeable to me.

Katy,
You are set up for "Quoted Printable", which will cause problems for many
newsreaders. For example, my newsreader won't add a"" at the beginning of
each line of your message.

You should be able to change your settings quite easily.

Click "Tools" - "Options" - "Send" - "Plain Text Settings"(in News
Sending Format)


Change the "Encode Using" from "Quoted Printable" to "none". Make sure
that the "Indent the original text" box has a tick in it and select "" from
the dropdown list. Click "OK", then "Apply", and we will have a happy
Horry!


Regards


Donal
