For instance Control-u 99999 Control-x f can reset the width for editing/composing a message but how do you reset the width for reading messages received? The reading messages width appears preset so that it changes the original message lines, it wraps the original message lines rather than displaying the original message lines as had been sent.

Nope, don't see Wrap in the minor mode area of the mode line. -UU-:%*--F1 RMAIL Top (1,0) (RMAIL 277/280)--12:55PM 1.29----------- > If so, try "M-x visual-line-mode RET". Visual-Line mode enabled Visual-Line mode disabled > If the above doesn't help, please explain what you mean by "width". Reading messages received is preset for 70 or so characters. How do you set it so longer lines of the original message don't get wrapt? For example, how do you reset to 1000 characters lines for reading messages received?
