"Normal")
Yes and no: Yes, evo can, when *sending* a message, differentiate between long and normal lines. No: when I receive a long line, it stays a long line (I can edit manually, of course) when I reply to a message. Unfortunately, some significant number of these long lines should really be normal text with linebreaks, so it could be good if evo could break that (perhaps it can? I never bothered since I felt it to be the problem of the sender - I quote as I get it). But it would be BAD if evo would always break long lines in replies.

This is a long long long long long "Preformat" line in a message so it should not be broken even when I have spaces in it, after all that's the joke... cheers -- vbi -- featured link: http://fortytwo.ch/gpg/intro
