We have the CR to put in paragraph breaks and the like. Why do we need
hard-CR's in E-Mail messages?? Because some mail readers don't wrap
them, because it wasn't always like that. For text intended to be read,
such as letters, documents, web-pages, it works best if text auto-wraps;
the User says where it wraps, by choosing their page/window dimensions.

It's all up to what editor you use, what email client you use, etc, and
I don't think people will ever agree on the topic. ^_^

For the record, I use Netscape (Communicator) for E-Mail, but if I want,
I can use Pine, Pegasus, or a web browser (or, heaven forbid, Outlook!)
from wherever I may be. Long live IMAP! Down with POP! ^_^
