Max line width for newsgroup messages. Still have it at 76. Do I need to ?
Paul,
Your current server (AIOE) also enforces a line length.
To be honest, I didn't expect that. Does sound like a smart thing to do
though.
USENET protocols enforce a line length limit of ~1000
At some point that came to my mind too. If I drop the 76 char limit I
will, assuming I just keep writing paragraphs that end with a CRLF, run into
that one, which effectivily means nothing changes.
And if that doesn't create a problem, anyone who quotes such a wide
paragraph (mine or someone elses) will bring me back to square one ...
I had hoped I could just alow quotes parts to shift a bit to the right
(because of new quote prefixes) and not having to reformat them (manual or
otherwise).
Drats. I didn't really think this thru, didn't I ? :-( :-)
Regards,
Rudy Wieser
