How do I fix my line wrap?

I'd like to comply with Toto's request, but I don't know how. I am on Google Groups if that is significant.

Word-wrap is a pain in the A** i have given up with my mail / newsgroup
client Thunderbird although it *is* highly configurable
IP = Orangeburg area = Optimum online

"Google Groups" is significant, because you can't get
line-wrapping done automatically by GG. It is not a
problem unique to GG, but it is not uncommon.

You have to hit <enter> where you want the new line
to start, just like hitting <CR> on old-fashioned typewriters.

I do that after 60 or 65 characters, using Forte Agent.
It makes quotation by other people nicer to read, for one thing.

For a while, I was complaining about folks not keeping
their lines short, but I have learned to adapt my own habits --
I was seeing very wide lines using Agent, wrapped at
the border of my wide screen. Then I realized that I
could use Agent in a "window" and narrow the read-frame
so that lines are decently short.

I will do my best to remember to hit "enter" more often.
Thanks.
