Not 100% sure how your suggestion permanently sets the line length in an em= ail?=20 As a test, I've set my Message Format to use Word, and selected the 'Email'= WordMail template. Let's see how this works...

Dear Sonja (McShane), I was just checking the line lengths semi-manually. Copy and paste the longest line to a blank Word document press Alt, T, W for Tools > Word count of a line that looks about right and then not exceed its length. The version of Microsloth Lookout (2000 SR-1) that we use here does not have the option (Internet Format) under Tools > Options > Mail Format about which Naomi Kramer writes. Hope that helps.

According to the Outlook help, you set this via Tools > Options, on the I= =3D nt=3D3D ernet E-mail tab.=3D3D20 For some reason my Outlook doesn't have this tab. I'm using an NT workstation. Anyone know how to set it on my machine?
