How to Reformat Long Lines in Incoming Mail with Pegasus Mail

By , About.com Guide

Some email programs break lines at a specific length, others don't. Fortunately, Pegasus Mail can handle both.

Reformat Long Lines in Incoming Mail with Pegasus Mail

If you encounter a line that does not wrap,

  • press F5 or
    • select Reader | Reformat long lines from the menu

to re-wrap text in incoming messages intelligently.

This setting is sticky. Pegasus Mail will remember it and reformat emails in the reader until you turn Reformat long lines off again.

Not that this only works if you open a message in its own window. Unfortunately, Pegasus Mail's preview pane does not have this functionality.
