Win10, 1903, T-bird 60.9.0. Not a new issue but an irritating issue. Many of my incoming email do not wrap the lines to the window width. Many others do. I've changed all five findings one at a time when I search for "wrap" in about.config and nothing has resolved the issue. Currently my only changes from default are:

plain_text.wrap_long_line set to true view_source.wrap_long_lines set to true

and this hasn't helped. I will revert to the default settings. Any advice? Thanks.

one of the issues you might be encountering is the message body being wrapped in a fixed size table.

Is "fixed size table" something in the originator's configuration? Is it something in my setup? How/where do I find it? If the issue is in only some of the messages it must be due to the originators creation. ?

open the message source (ctrl+U) when you have the message selected in the list. Seach for the word table. You don't have to understand the HTML source to search for a table in it because it uses the word table.
