Okay. Outlook just calls it "plain text" (no formatting for lines or fonts).
It's a VERY common format and generally preferred since it allows the
reader's computer do the wrapping. 

Looking at the QTH.NET archives, I see the same thing, but it's no longer
the same format the e-mail sender posted. It's been converted and formatted
in HTML for display in a web browser.

QTH.NET needs to fix how Mailman converts text to display in HTML with their
browser frame.

What Fred is referring to is the display on-line at "Mailman". I 
complained about the same thing a few days ago but might as well save my 
fingers, it is caused by posting e-mails in "Preformat" or whatever 
various e-mail programs call it. Using "Body Text" cures the problem!

By golly Fred, that message displayed just fine here, either in MS Outlook
or using a simple text reader like Notepad.

You reflector post - is like 5 lines, and each line
is a couple hundred characters wide. It makes for
very poor email posting. Do you send you normal
emails to friends, like this?
