I think if you hit the Return/Enter key a few more times rather than
relying on the line wrapping of whatever email program you 
are using, it would make things a little easier.

The problem is that the DJML is all "plain text" this means all
the fancy formatting information about what font to use
and how long to make the lines gets lost. So you have
to put it all in by hand.

Set the font to something like Courier and you will get a better
picture of what it will look like.

When quoting for other peoples emails, again, put the new lines
in by hand.

It all sounds a bit of a pain, but give it a try and see what happens

Hope that helps
