When I used OE, I found OE Quote-Fix by Dominik Jain to be invaluable.
I've heard about it, but if there is no need to hard-wrap such quote-fixing*
isn't really needed.
OE had (has!) other benefits - IMO mainly help with avoiding
top-posting.
*as quote prefixes can differer between clients - and possibly not
recognised by a program - I will stil need to double check. And as I'm as
lazy as they come ... :-)
(-:
But ... the question is: Do I (still) need to hard-wrap long lines on
sending ? Or may I expect that most modern-ish readers* will (be able to)
do such wrapping themselves ?
*As, or more recent than OE6 on XP I mean.
You probably don't _need_ to, but - especially since even OE _can_ do it
automatically - I can't see the _harm_ in leaving it on.
