I have a real challenge here that involves Outlook and
Mozilla Mail.

1. Someone writes a message with Outlook and sends it to
someone using another client, such as Mozilla Mail in this
case.

2. The person replies to the message or
forwards the message to someone using Outlook.

Now when the message is viewed again using Outlook, long
lines from the original message (written in Outlook) will
not wrap inside of Outlook; The lines "run on" forcing you
to scroll the window. Long lines that were added with the
second client such as Mozilla still display properly.

For some reason, Outlook stops wrapping the original
lines. This happens even if everyone is set to send mail
using only plain-text.


Thanks
 
Although the original message was written from an Outlook client, the format received is only relevant
to the sending client <in this case, Mozilla Mail>.

Mozilla Mail may be placing hard returns in the emails.

First, you may want to see what editor you are using within Outlook? If you are using Word as your
editor, set then remove this option and see if the issue persists.
