I didn't realize my mailer was not breaking lines. I'm using Hotmail.
Any suggestions for a fix or an alternative mailer?
I'm currently relying on my MS system to gain web access.

If you completed the installation successfully, then /stand is a directory
that has various nice tools. The "sysinstall" executable is one of them.
What does the following command show?
# ls -l /stand/sys*

All of them :P
Your mailer or editor or something, doesn't wrap text when it sends the
message. It's probably one of those broken mailers that wrap text at the
end of the window border, and when sending perform various black rituals
for deciding where lines should be split.
