Yes I do. Right above where it says "Automatically wrap text at ## characters, when sending.",
you'll see an option to encode text - you need to set these to "None". For the "Plain text
settings", you'll also need to have "Mime" selected, rather than uencode. Exactly what the encode
option is for is beyond me, but I'm sure someone could tell us. Either way, I've always used Mime
and everything seems to work fine. hth
