Balsa by default inserts in the messages that it creates at the
end of every line an " =20" expression. That seems to be a "hard
wrap" that mail clients use it to always wrap lines whenever they
bump into it. However, some clients insert in the mails they
generate just a "soft wrap" consisting only of one "=" which make
the mail clients wrap lines more liberally, expanding lines to the
entire width of the available space in the current view. I would
also prefer the "soft wrap", it seems so much better, why isn't it
enabled by default?
Well, the "Format=Flowed" declaration in the header resulted in a
perfect re-wrap of your e-mail.
Of course, when you *do* set "Format=Flowed", you cannot send any
preformatted ascii tables or block indented paragraphs.
Re-wrapping an indented reply is such a pain in the butt
sometimes, even with the "select the whole reply and rewrap"
solution. Multiple spaces appear when doing that and most of the
times I end up re-wrapping it by hand. Arggghhh... How do the
other mailers do it?
I really hate to say it, but Balsa absolutely sucks in its handling
of quoted text. I should reply to this message just to show how
bad it can be.
