Word wrapping bug in HTML messages in Entourage 2008.

[PTB]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: pop

This problem was reported and briefly discussed in November 2008 with no resolution posted. I just encountered the same problem! any ideas of how to resolve it?

When typing in Entourage email in HTML and the text approaches the right hand margin for the screen (screen width does not matter), the text does not wrap down to the next line as it should. Instead the first letter in the sentence by the left hand margin wraps up and adds a line. The up-wrap text is usually one character wide but can be a few words depending upon the screen width. Here's the before and after.

"The name of the game is basketball."

"
T
h
e
name of the game is basketball."

This is interfering with my work and I really need to resolve this quickly.

Any help would be appreciated...thanks

If you close and save the message as a Draft, does it reopen the same
way or does it then look normal? This would at least indicate that you
have an appearance problem or something else.
