Bug Description
Binary package hint: thunderbird
Some html e-mail messages fail to wrap at the edge of the window requiring that one scroll left to right to read each line. Some messages wrap at a width wider than the screen, others do not wrap till the end of each paragraph.
1) I am using xubuntu 8.04 (with ubuntu and kubuntu meta-packages added). Updates are current.
2) Thunderbird version 2.0.0.17 (20080925).
3) Expect messages to wrap text to window width.
4) Some messages fail to wrap properly, requiring horizontal scrolling to read message.

Thank you for reporting this issue. I attempted to reproduce this using Thunderbird and the attachment. all of the lines wrapped as expected. Perhaps this is due to the font used or the size of the font. Could you try changing those in Edit -> Preferences -> Display or Composition and see if that fixes this for you.
