Re: MHonArc mail archive line wrapping

In the MHonArc mail archive there are often super-long lines, which would be 
wrapped to the window width when viewing in most mail clients, but when 
viewed in a web browser they appear as long singlelines which take a lot of 
left-to-right scrolling to read them.
For example: <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/renum/current/ 
msg00060.html>
This appears to be due to MHonArc's use of the PRE tag, which tells the web 
browser to display the literal text exactly as given, in a fixed-width font.
The MHonArc FAQ suggests a couple of solutions to this problem:


Can long lines be wrapped in converted messages?

<http://www.mhonarc.org/MHonArc/doc/faq/mime.html#lineclip



Can the <PRE> tags be removed from converted messages?

<http://www.mhonarc.org/MHonArc/doc/faq/mime.html#removepre


Can we consider using either of these options?

Yes, please.  

If either fix could be deployed for web archives of the sundry
mailing lists, both @ietf.org and @irtf.org, that would be VERY kind.

Thanks,

Ran
