Hmmmmm, according to my HTML-reference, that won't help. "wrap" is not 
part of the HTML-standard and is treated differently by the usual 
suspects...

wrap="soft", used by Netscape 4.x, line-warp while when textarea is 
displayed, but no line-wrap when submitted.

wrap="hard", used by Netscape 4.x, line-wrap both for display and 
submission.

wrap="virtual", Internet Explorer starting with 4.x and Netscape 2.x and 
3.x, equals wrap="soft".

wrap="physical", Internet Explorer starting with 4.x and Netscape 2.x 
and 3.x, equals wrap="hard".

wrap="off" Internet Explorer starting with 4.x, Opera starting with 7, 
Netscape, Konqueror and Firefox interpretiert, no wrap

So I'd consider 'warp="off"' to be the only sensible setting. Would it 
break anything? Is there a limit on the size a single line can have, 
both in sympa and TT2?
