Re: [Lynx-dev] Lynx on Gmail and on my webmail

[Karen Lewellen]

i honestly am not sure I follow the problem.  are you always sending tons 
of quoted texts?  I send files with many lines to myself  and elsewhere 
via gmail all  the 
time without issue.  Still I use lynx on an open source service so  it may 
make  a difference.
