Here the first one was cut        CN> at 40K and the next ones were not tossed to the messagebase.              Cannot generally confirm this. There is no general limitation on the message       length (other a 2GB limit for an area file) and I recently did some testing       with long messages without problems. I only noticed that the word wrap       algorithm explodes for long messages leading to very long display times vor       certain contents. I have that on the list.              Still, if you have a message that causes problems, let me see. Can you send me       a corresponding .pkt containing these messages?              Regards,       Tim              --- WinPoint 412.0        * Origin: Original WinPoint Origin!
