word wrap sent message view?

Hey, when I compose a message word wrapping works and the message text is wrapped to the message composer window size. That all works fine.

However whenever I review a sent message, there is no word wrapping. The result is every paragraph is one long line that has to be scrolled to view. Is there no way for Thunderbird to wrap in the sent message view?

Thanks for you support!

Hi, you're actually describing the setup that I'm trying to achieve without success. To summarize and see if I got it right:

1. While composing an email the text you write is automatically wrapped to the size of the compose-window.

2. In the actually sent message, however, each paragraph does not contain newlines or linefeeds. This means that if the recipient's client does not have an auto-wrap function, the recipient will see a paragraph as a single line, probably requiring horizontal scrolling to be read. (This also means that the apparent wrapping in point 1. above is just "visual": it is not done by concretely adding newlines/linefeeds to the outgoing text.)


If this is what you mean, then it's what I'm trying to set up but don't manage to. While composing, the text gets automatically wrapped, and the outgoing message contains corresponding newlines/linefeeds (that I didn't type while composing).

May I ask you what kind of wrap setting you have to achieve this? (please be careful not to send any kind of sensitive personal information while sharing settings!)
