Default OL 2007 save as .txt adds line breaks

Mine goes to at least 108 - this was from a plain text message. Removing
line breaks doesn't have an effect - its 108 either way.

An HTML message saved as text has 100 characters per line.

My break lines at setting is 76 - so its not using that when it figures the
beaks.

Robert,

Remove extra line breaks in plain text messages


Thanks for your message, but that is not exactly the point as Outlook
does not remove line breaks, but it adds new ones when saving a plain
text message to disk. It inserts line breaks after exactly 80 chars,
no matter of the display. This means information what was previously
in one line is now in two lines, what is causing problems.

Thanks n brgds
