           Summary: Soft word wrap is really necessary
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.9
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
        AssignedTo: kmail-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: gsasha cs technion ac il


Version:           1.9 (using KDE 3.5.0, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.0-0ubuntu0breezy1 breezy)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-10-386

The current implementation of the semi-hard word wrap works OK for plain-text emails, it is wrong for HTML-formatted ones.

For an example, consider having two paragraphs, one in font 10, another in font 32. The first will appear to have normal width, and the second will become huge (even worse results occur when mixing letters of different fonts in the same para).

I suggest adding the "soft word wrap to window width" as an option in addition to the current semi-hard word wrap - from reading the Bugzilla, I see there are people who appear to prefer this way. Including me :)
