Me too. +10 if I had that many votes.
If I am to read a log, and that log contains lines 200 characters long,
most of our email readers /can/ handle that, so PLEASE turn off the
word-wrap in your email agent long enough to post a log unmolested by
senseless word-wrapping. That is a huge help to those of us who might
be interested in helping. Word-wrap it so it makes no sense, and I'll
just hit the + key (kmail) to go on to the next message.
Cheers, Gene Heskett
