    New Message

    When I'm typing a new message it just keeps going and going to the right
    unless I press enter for a new line. When it is received they have to scroll
    to see these long lines. How do I get it to break naturally. There must be
    an option that I can't locate.

    In WLM, got to tools-options-send tab.

    Toward the bottom, you will see mail sending format and news sending format.
    Click on the appropriate settings tab, and you can set your line wrap there.
    Mine is set to 76.

    What you type should wrap to the composition window as you type. At
    least what you see.

    When the message is written to the Outbox folder for sending, WLM
    applies final wrapping that affects what the recipient will see or what
    you will see in the Sent Items folder.

    If you are composing in Plain Text, you settings at Tools (ALT+T),
    Options, Send, Mail, Plain text settings are used. There is a wrap
    length that is applied when the message is written to the Outbox. It
    doesn't affect wrapping as you type.

    If you use MIME with Quoted-printable encoding for text, many mail
    clients on receiving the message will reflow the message to wrap to the
    message reading window.

    If composing in HTML format, which requires MIME and normally uses
    quoted-printable, the wrap setting there doesn't apply.

    Are you composing in Plain text or HTML format?

    What settings do you have for the format that you are using?

    If you are using HTML format, are you using any Stationery? If so, what
    one?
