Yeah, ATTYahoo and their web mail sucks.  I chatted with their IRC tech support after NoOp's mail who couldn't fix it(not available service, can you imagine that) but he gave me a small business link that tells how to do it but it wouldn't work.  They claim it defaults to 72 characters per line but if
you and the rest are seeing 120 characters or more I'll let NoOp show me how to set up TB for the semi blind and go back to it.  FWIW, I cant stand emails that go outside the viewing window either.  It really bugs me. So after today, I'll be using TB and everybody should be happy again-:))  Thanks for the feed back.
