SeaMonkey is supposed to be business grade software so should have few bugs. Experience has confirmed this. SeaMonkey requires some email setup to get the wrapping working as required. See below. The kind of wrapping desired is:- 1. Don't wrap outgoing email. Mail should not altered by adding extra line breaks because a quoted email thread can then become a mess and wide tables get chopped. RFC 2822 section 2.1.1. causes wrapping problems since it wrongly tries to put a limit of 998 on line length. See http://www.tnlc.com/eep/wrap.html for more on this. 2. Soft wrap to window width when composing. Just for convenience of writing, this doesn't change anything permanently. RFC 2822 folly setting 998 email line length limit - www.tnlc.com Secure Email S/MIME Thawte - Procedure for setup of S/MIME Thawte free personal email certificates and use with SeaMonkey or IE and Outlook.
