Actually, the person can save the message to disk and then look at it with
an ASCII/ANSI viewer such as TheDraw or ACiDVIEW (in the case of WIN95,
NOTEPAD) if they want to see what it really looks like. NOTEPAD is fixed-width.

OR

If they can, SEND the message directly to NOTEPAD if the viewer allows (in
WIN95).
