Question about Word Wrap and Message Formatting.

I've alway had problems with Word Wrap when reading messages/posts
on-line, but it has been absolutely terrible since they started the
new format.

If others are having this problem, then we can maybe write to Yahoo
and get them to fix it. If it's just me,...then I guess it's just me.

Here is what a typical message looks like when I read it on line. The
End of Line Breaks were forced to match what I see when I read that post.

While I generally agree with what is being said here, I want 
to bring
in a point of clarification.

We seem to be assuming that Death Eaters and Voldemort 
Supporters are
one and the same thing. Certainly Death Eaters are 
Voldemort
Supporters, but Voldemort supporters are not necessarily 
Death Eaters.

I believe true 'branded' Death Eaters are very few. Best 
guess, maybe
50 to perhaps an unlikely 100 in number.

Yahoo seems to think Word Wrap should occur somewhere around character
70 on a line, when in reality, it should be closer to character 60.

It really makes in difficult to read messages when the lines are all
broken up like this.

I will point out the I use 800x600 resolution, and a fairly large
font; Courier New and visually slightly larger than normal 12 point
type face. Unfortunately, I think Yahoo's style sheet is overriding my
font setting and forcing it's own size.

So, anyone else have this annoying problem?
