Hmmm...my posts appear fine to me (in two different newsreaders, even).
Which newsreader are you using? Do all of my posts have that problem, and
does anyone else see them badly formatted?
You have to define "badly formatted". Your posts appear to not wrap text
within a paragraph. Some newsreaders will go ahead and reformat such test
for display, while others just clip the text at the edge of the window.
You'll also notice that, even though my newsreader wrapped your lines for me
so that I could read the whole message, when I went to quote it, only one
quote character per paragraph is used, since they are put at the beginning
of each CR/LF terminated line.
"Normal" practice would be to break lines at some reasonable point, usually
in the neighborhood of 72 characters (to allow for quote characters while
still remaining below 80 characters). Maybe your newsreader has a setting
that allows you to specify that.
