wrapping after 70 characters
Martin Bretschneider
how can I adjust Eudora 5.1.1 to wrap outgoing mail after 70 characters.
I could not find such a option.

Try:
Check out the following settings in the eudora.ini file.
WordWrapColumn 76 When the "Word wrap" switch is on, this is the column
in which lines in outgoing messages are wrapped.
WordWrapMax 80 When the "Word wrap" switch is on, this is the length
at which a line in an outgoing message is considered
too long and must be wrapped.
WordWrapOnScreen 0 If this is on (set to non-zero), then the composition
window will automatically wrap text on the screen at
the number of characters specified in WordWrapColumn,
regardless of the width of the window.

Thanks very much for this undocumented features. It does work very well
but I do not really understand the difference between WordWrapColumn and
WordWrapMax.
Kind regards from Martin

Try:
Because default values of parms are not listed, they only show up
in the Eudora.ini file when their values have changed or changed
back to an original value.

Be aware that turning WordWrapOnScreen on can cause problems. In older
versions of Eudora, it can cause messages to go out without the quote
markers for quoted text and in newer versions it often causes quoted text
to be repeated multiple times in replies.

Undocumented? Not very. Daniel was quoting the help file. :)
If you want to find information on the various settings you can make in
eudora.ini, look in the help file under "eudora.ini". There's lots of
documentation there, although it doesn't always tell you much about any
given setting.

Eudora.ini only contains those settings that have either been changed from
the default within the options or that you've added yourself. If you want
to change the settings for anything that's never been changed before, you
just add the necessary lines.

OK, I've browsed the preferences and looked for wrap in the help.
