Excessively long sentences in E-Mail

[Dog Lover]

I'm using Netscape and have no problems except with the Class
Action Lawsuit thats trying to help us.
When ever they send an E-Mail(plain text),The sentences are
many pages long. It takes forever and makes me dizzy scrolling bck and forth.
back and forth to read the Msg.
Is it something I have to do,or them?
Why is it only them I'm having trouble with?
I brush daily and change my underwear. Why do these bad
things happen to me.
Sincerely
DOG LOVER

To CORROSIVE
I Rc'd E-Mail saying that you had responded to my request for
help.
When I visited the site there wasn't anything there.
Please respond again.

What version of Netscape do you use? And, you're using Netscape Mail, right?
I have a suggestion for you in the meantime. When you get one of these emails, copy and paste the whole thing into a Notepad or (for better readability IMO), Wordpad document to read it. In Notepad, if it still is many pages wide, click on 'Edit', then 'Wordwrap'.

Dog Lover,

Netscape Mail has it's own built in word wrap feature.

NS 4.7x: Go to Edit > Preferences > Mail & Newsgroups > Messages
Check Wrap incoming, plain text messges to window width

NS 6 & 7: Go to Edit > Preferences > Mail & Newsgroups > Message Display
Check Wrap text to fit window width

I tried the fixes you'all suggested and it was no go. Again,
I'm using Netscape 4.75. I went to "Notepad" and "Word-
wrap was already checked. In "Mail and newsgroup"
the box was already checked on "Wrap incoming plain
text messages to window width".
The gol-darn problem is,and only has been with mail from
this one source.
I appreciate your help
Stay safe
Dog lover
