[geeks] Long lines (not telco)

[Lionel Peterson]

I am sending this note from my iPhone, using the built-in email client  
to enable me (and any others that may possibly interested) to observe  
how this client handles long text lines - that is, if this email  
client uses 'Format="float"', a current favorite of several members  
and reputed to be a cure-all for all the formatting issues of a  
certain long-winded list member (me). I would normally start a new  
paragraph, but since my goal is to create a single line email with  
well over 80 characters to see how this MUA, clearly a product of this  
century (really that just means the last 7 plus years, but it sounds  
more dramatic expressed that way), and is from a company that is held  
by many ( both on and off the sunhelp maillists) to almost always do  
the right thing and to sweat the details, including complying with  
obscure RFCs. There, that should be long enough to demonstrate how the  
iPhone email client handles plain-text and long lines.
