Is there a way to get mail (4.2bsd) to do a word-wrap at the end of a long line
when the user is typing in a message?  For instance, running MS-Kermit on a PC
as terminal with SET TERM WRAP ON, if the user reaches the end of a line in vi,
vi inserts the crlf and also moves the entire word to the beginning of the next
line; mail just breaks the word (at least the way I have it set up now).  Is 
there a SET option (or possibly something in termcap???) that will force word 
wrap?

Please send responses directly to moore@NCSC.arpa, as I'm not on this list.   
Thanks for any assistance.

Jim
