Could be - but my posts seem to get them when I send in rich text - I'm sending
this in rich text (html) and will let it be converted to plain text. I have
never had them when I send directly from my computer in plain text -
so - if this post doesn't come in with them on  - then my theory is blown out of
the water!!
we could check word wrap settings - and could be the combination of rich text
and word wrap?
