It doesn't matter if you have format=flowed on or off. As a result, when you will open the saved draft for further editing, you will have problems... like this: let's say you have 'wrap plain text messages at' = 20 (just to make an example) you do 'compose' a new message you write: this is a very annoying problem Correctly, until you stay in compose window, mozilla wraps "this is a very annoying problem" 'on screen only', this way: this is a very annoying problem ...so, if you delete "this" from the first line, "annoying" correctly "comes up" from the second to the first line, this way: is a very annoying problem But if you save this message as draft, and later you open it again for further editing, when you delete (for example) "is a very " from the first line, "problem" doesn't 'come up' from the second to the first line as it should, because when "saving as draft" mozilla has saved an hard wrap after "annoying". It shouldn't work this way: when saving a message as draft (AND when saving a message with the 'send later' feature, AND EVEN when saving a sent message in the 'sent' folder), mozilla should save only the hard wraps a user manually entered, and rewrap the message "on screen only" according to "'wrap plain text messages at'" setting when editing/displaying the 'sent'/'saved as draft'/'to send later' message; in other words, mozilla should add the "automatic hard wraps" (the ones it has to add according to "wrap plain text messages at" setting) only when actually sending a message and ONLY in the copy it is actually sending out - never locally. I'll rate this as a 'major' bug because I think it is: i think i'm not the only one who often has to write long messages and sometimes has to save theme as draft in order to further edit them later - having to manually adjust all the lines in a paragraph after the one from which you deleted some words, is really a big pain. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. you have "'edit' > 'preferences' > 'mail & newsgroups' > 'composition' > 'wrap plain text messages at'" = x (where x>0) 1. compose a new plaintext message 2. type a line longer than x 3. save this message as a draft 4. open it again Actual Results: now if you delete something 'long enough' from the first line, mozilla doesn't correctly 'reflow' the message (bringing some words from the secondo line to the first line) since when 'saving as draft' it saved an hard wrap at the 'end' of the first line. Expected Results: it should have reflowed the message correctly :)
