262467 - Turning off 'wrap_long_lines' pref not working as expected

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 116688

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

If mail.wrap_long_lines is set to False, non-f=f plain text messages 
(moz-text-plain) *still* wrap to the window width.  This should not occur; 
instead, the lines should be rendered at their original width, with a horizontal 
scrollbar when necessary.

But format=flowed messages (moz-text-flowed) wrap to window width *only* those 
lines which end in a space.  In this case, all the lines should be reflowing 
because that's what f=f does.

Reproduced with Moz 1.4, Moz 1.7.2, and TB 0.8, all under Win2K.
I haven't checked whether news.wrap_long_lines also does not work.
