I have a problem with composing offline in a Mac word processor for a
character-based dumb electronic mail system like Telemail.  Simple 
composition I have done with no problems.  But what about when I prepare 
a large document, perhaps a memo of some kind, with lots of formatting.  
I could go in and change the font so that wraps occur correctly, and I 
could change all the tabs to strings of spaces, but that's a real pain.

Has anyone come up with an elegant solution for this?  Something that 
would preserve some degree of formatting for Telemail without requiring 
massive manual reformatting?

Thanks
