R help - Sep 2009 - Plea: No long unbroken lines, please!

Hi Folks,
I don't often grumble, but this time I've found myself inconvenienced
by a posting stored on R-help archives:

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-September/211095.html

This was Karin Groothuis-Oudshoorn & Stef van Buuren's message
on 10 September about the new version of MICE.

This has been sent by software which inserted no line-breaks.
As a result, each paragraph is viewed (by my browser, Firefox)
as one very long line, not wrapped. In particular, the third
paragraph, about the extensions which have been introduced, comes
out as a single line 657 characters long, of which I can only see
about one fifth at a time. This makes it very difficult to take
in what is written.

The only way to get it decent is to Copy&Paste the content into
a local file, and then tidy that up oneself.

So may I please ask people to try to avoid sending long unbroken
lines?

(And perhaps the pipermail server may have a configuration option
which would insert line-breaks at suitable places?)

With thanks!

Question: In a case (like this) where there is a posting in the
archives which one wishes one had retained oneself, is there any
way to get pipermail to re-send it to oneself? In that way, it
could resume its rightful place in one's own email inbox. (This
is not the first time I have wished for this).

Ted.

Well Ted, that's just a flaw in your character!  I guess
you can't help it! :-)

Slightly off-topic, but in such cases one solution would be to use
Opera's "View > Fit to width". It will quickly break all lines
as
needed to fit on screen. It might be worth to check whether there is
some Firefox extension offering similar behaviour.
