Make Email Message Auto Remove of Extra Line Breaks Optional

[Guest]

When reading a email message in the Preview Pane, I can see that some people
might like the fact that extra line breaks would be automatically removed.
But I don't prefer it that way. It makes too many mistakes and seemingly
wrong choices as to when and when not to remove a line break.

And I find it very irritating that it defaults to the opposit of what I
prefer.

Either default it to NOT removing extra line breaks, or add something to the
Options dialogs that allow the user to decide whether removing line breaks
should default to yes or no.

Hmmmm, interesting. As many times as I have gone through options at one time
of another, I have never noticed that before. Thanks for point it out!!!

Is that always been there for Outlook 2003?
