outgoing line breaks
OEQuoteFix doesn't get the job done either.

Actually, that message looked better than many that go out. I had set
my news Send wrap to 60, since at 76 some lines were so much longer
than others.
My email Send options are set at 76 at the moment, so the differences
in line length are greater than this - but this is bad enough. In
order for the line lengths as shown in Bruce's message to stay longer
than 60, I just put my news Send back to 76.
As it appears in my Sent folder, (hoping it stays that way when it
gets to the group!)the word "get" at the beginning of the 5th line
could have been at the end of the fourth line.
My own outgoing messages have irregular line breaks, no
matter where I set my wrap. Lines are of varying lengths
for no apparent reason. If I edit the outgoing message to
get rid of ridiculously short lines, by hitting delete to
get rid of what would be hard or soft returns in word
processing, the same or a different stupid line break gets
in.
As it appeared in Bruce's reply, the line breaks are still goofy:

In the message as it got to the group, there is no reason the word
"the" on the third line could not have been at the end of the second
line. Same story for the word "delete" in the fourth line - why
isn't it at the end of the third line? Well, except I notice now that
the first line is much longer than 60! How does a message I send at
60 get changed by the recipient's setting?
And, back to my original problem - is there any way to encourage OE
to wrap correctly?
