Long links broken Bug

Hi,
The messageview pane has the tendence of breaking long links as you see on the screenshot.

Please, how can I get around this, more and more registration- and other links are really long these days, and they end up broken (unclickable) in Becky.

Just to add, this only happens in plain text-view, not in html-view.

Plain text e-mails should have a hard return at 80 characters.

See :
RFC822 Guideline

and also at:
RFC2822 Guideline

2.1.1. Line Length Limits

There are two limits that this standard places on the number of
characters in a line. Each line of characters MUST be no more than
998 characters, and SHOULD be no more than 78 characters, excluding
the CRLF.

Basically the sender application is following the guidelines , there is a hard return/linebreak . Sometimes if the link is enclosed with '<' url '>' it will work.

What I end up doing when required is copy the two or more lines to a text editor, join the lines until I have one complete line (removing extra spaces etc) then copy and paste into Opera.

Rather have my e-mail client follow the guidelines. Becky is doing the proper thing. In plaintext Becky shows the wrap, the HTML/Rich version is OK. Remember that fixed spaced fonts (used in plaintext) take more space than nonfixed spaced fonts.

ie: i & w take the same amount of space when you use Courier, but different amount of space if you use TimesRoman.

A really good feature for Becky would be a button in compose mode to turn a long url into a tinyurl inputing the value into www.tinyurl.com
