Looks like forcing iso-8859-1 didn't help for the wrapping on the list archive. Trying the same message with utf8 (again from outlook 2002). xan >> ...The problem doesn't come from >> the pre, but from broken mail clients that allow to have lines bigger >> than 78 characters. > Can you elaborate on that a little?

Just to add some information (and test my theory by posting to the list), I have noticed that the problematic messages (no soft breaks) from Outlook 2002 seem to only occur when the encoding is us-ascii. If I force the encoding to something else like utf-8 or iso-8859-1 by either including a non-ascii character or telling Outlook to not auto-select the encoding, then it seems to wrap correctly with soft breaks. xan
