[I apologize for the unusual formatting of this post, but after
reading one of my own posts to see that it got up okay, I see I
have a problem]

I never had this problem before, but without warning or changing
anything I seem to have it.  The problem is that when I insert
regularly formatted paragraphs into a NG post window, they come out
*really* long, much longer than the 72 characters I have my Post
preferences set at.

For an example of a long line that doesn't seem to do much but test this problem, take a look at what should be a 4-line paragraph (entered into a New Posting window without hitting return at the end of each line).

I am using v72.2 Release 2.0 NewsGrazer on a NeXTSTEP3.0 machine.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
