Default OE truncating sent messages

I have a client who is complaining that his OE is truncating long messages
sent from OE. Message are being cut short at about 100 words or 9 lines.
Anything longer are truncated.

They look fine when the send button is hit, but when looked at in Sent items
they are truncated and so it what the receiver gets.

Any clues?

Cheers,
Matt

Default OE truncating sent messages

Just a guess, but:

In OE | Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced: Uncheck, "Break
apart messages..................".

Otherwise, check your settings in Tools | Options | Send and make sure your
Plain text settings are set to wrap at 76 characters.
