OT Re: [Elecraft] Missing CR/LF?

There seem to be two issues here, both connected to the email clients in 
use on both sides.

On the send side, many email clients can be set to start a new line at 
some arbitrary line length - say 60 characters, or 72, or whatever, and 
then they auto-insert the CR / LF or <ENTER> key for you. 

On the receive side, many email clients allow you to set automatic line 
wrap for whatever screen width the user has selected; this does have the 
down side of making the quoted text a bit different ambiguous.

Seems fixable in a lot of ways.
