strawberryJAMM here:

  Littlekat - Mandy forgot to mention that the second line is 
shorter than the first and third lines, anywhere from two thirds to 
a half the length.

  Does the method you use to read Email make the spacing of ASCII 
characters apparent, or does it just read the words aloud to you?

  On the off chance that you can see the characters and their 
spacing, I've inserted an ASCII art lightning bolt below.  As I also 
don't know what the characters I've used will be called, a "soldus" 
is the same as a "slash" - a line that goes from top right to bottom 
left.  A "reverse soldus", "reverse slash" or "backslash" is the 
opposite - a line from the top left to the bottom right.

ASCII art lightning bolt follows this line.
