• If the messages you receive from others are off the screen to the right forcing you to use the lower scroll bar in order to see it all, you will need to change the Line Width option to 64 or 72. (you will have to experiment with each to see which is better - 62 for smaller screens)
  
  
• The Message Headers option will allow you to cut down on all of the additional heading information you see on messages you receive.
• This option three settings: Basic, Full, None.

• Experiment to see which setting is best for you.
