It's a bug with 3.03, unchecking "Wrap Long Lines" *Sometimes* helps,
but not always.

It is only thinking the lines are too long, I have had it do this to
lines only *10 characters* long!  If you make an entire message
w/ real short lines, and trigger the bug, it will add blank lines. :-(

If it was larger the the default window, re-sizeing only changes the
display, it wraps it at the same place when sent. :-(

Two bugs. :-(
