Description Dan Winship 2001-05-28 17:15:08 UTC 
People don't understand what "preformat" means. It should probably
be "No word wrap" or something when in plaintext mode.
Comment 1 Larry Ewing 2001-10-21 05:07:18 UTC 
this is not 1.0
Comment 2 Luis Villa 2001-10-21 20:31:57 UTC 
Would be a trivial UI polish fix if anna has a better suggestion.
Comment 3 Larry Ewing 2001-10-24 21:38:31 UTC 
Preformat is what mozilla uses, I am not sure there is a better word
floating around
Comment 4 Radek Doulik 2002-01-23 21:20:46 UTC 
we haven't found any better term and Preformat is used by Mozilla and
IIRC by Outlook too, so I am closing this one
