build id: 1999052008 platform: windows nt this bug has to do with the messages pane of the prefs. problems: the "Wrap outgoing, plain text messages at … characters" should have the number 72 automatically inserted in its input control. It is currently blank. I believe - but I am not sure - that the default for starting one's reply should be "start my reply above the quoted text", but seamonkey currently defaults to "start my reply below the quoted text". can someone say for sure?

reassign it to jglick so she can tell matt what should be correct wording. cc matt.

The "Wrap outgoing, plain text messages at … characters" text field should have the number 72 inserted as a default. The default for starting one's reply should be "start my reply above the quoted text".

Move to M9, waiting for spec finialized

Move to post beta

Changing description to reflect new name of this area of prefs. Reassigning to matt (sorry, matt).

Worry about this later ...

spam: in my testing realm, so reassigning qa contact to me, en masse.

Bulk move of all Pref UI component bugs to new Preferences component. Pref UI component will be deleted.

When you currently do a clean install of Mozilla (Win95, build 02/29) it sets word wrapping to 72 and "start my reply above the quoted text" by default. So the mentioned problems have apparently been addressed. As I do not own the bug, I won't mark it fixed. Feel free to do so.

this looks fine to me when using today's opt comm bits [2000.03.02.08] on winNT (and linux and mac). marking as wfm...however, matt, was there an actual fix submitted for this? if so, feel free to change the resolution to Fixed. thx!

verif.
