Subject: [sup-talk] How can I make sup use word wrap in the message preview buffer?

I write a message in emacs and then save it, and then the message is displayed to me with signature, etc., in a preview buffer.  But the paragraphs are displayed as long lines.  Life is too short for this.  Please advise.

Thanks.

Hi Steve!

Sup displays exactly what the email looks like. Emacs may be displaying
it wrapped, but it isn't actually wrapping it (i.e. putting \n's in.)
You need to press meta-Q or whatever the Emacs command is to actually
wrap those paragraphs.

I don't have Sup do any wrapping because it's better left to the
editor---there may very well be portions of the message you don't want
wrapped (code snippets, log file snippets, etc.)
