Title:
  some html messages fail to wrap properly

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Some html e-mail messages fail to wrap at the edge of the window
  requiring that one scroll left to right to read each line.  Some
  messages wrap at a width wider than the screen, others do not wrap
  till the end of each paragraph.

  1) I am using xubuntu 8.04 (with ubuntu and kubuntu meta-packages
  added).  Updates are current.

  2) Thunderbird version 2.0.0.17 (20080925).

  3) Expect messages to wrap text to window width.

  4) Some messages fail to wrap properly, requiring horizontal scrolling
  to read message.
