Laine, I'd like to know precisely how that was done as i've resorted to
using Tinyurl for a forum I manage that often email long urls. I had
worked myself around to believe that the original mail client (Mac OS Mail
in my case) actually determined this. Further, a set of experiments with
AS composing emails via OS-X Mail, both with and without <these> found
that the result was a wrapped URL in most reading clients (but not all).
Tinyurl was the only reliable way to get long urls to remain clickable in
all clients.

btw, in PINE, my current reader, your email displayed wrapped but
highlighted, consistent with the single LONG line shown above. The catch
is that OS-X Mail seems to wrap everything, whether you want it to or not.
