I've observed that this happens with posts that are cut and pasted from
MacIntosh word processing software and sometimes with MacIntosh e-mail
clients.  It can also occur if the post is composed in a word-processor and
pasted into an AOL e-mail.  What look like spaces are translated into the
high-bit characters that control "carriage returns."
You might want to check and see if any of those situations apply.. then you
could experiment a little bit until you eliminate the "offending"
combination.

You last e-mail was bright and clear! :-)
