Plain Text Email Tip
I wanted to post one practice with plain text e-mails here that I have found helpful. You may already know this, so if you do I guess I am preaching to the choir. Here goes:
Plain text e-mails are easiest read if under 65 characters wide. So, you will need to add some breaks in the lines frequently. Have you ever had your breaks not show up in the final e-mail you receive like you think they ought to, or as they appear in the plain text editor?
I wrestled with this for awhile, using soft returns and hard returns the like, and still the plain text line seemed to arbitrarily scroll ALL THE WAY across the page.
Solution: When you want to break your line, enter at least 3 spaces (spacebar) and then shift-return. This will break your line each and every time.
I hope that helps!
