So there was something between WinPMail and the server after all. :-)
We have the same issue here, and it seems to be occurring more each day. I've given my users tips on what to do for forwarding and printing, but they never remember and are starting to get a little annoyed. I understand David is working on a fix, that's great news! If some testing help is needed for the fix, I will gladly volunteer if it helps us arrive at a solution quicker!
You seem to refer to a previous post, which one? Did you get a session log for diagnosing (Tools => Internet options => General at the bottom, please read Pegasus Mail's help or search this forum for more details before posting any of the results, it'll contain your account credentials!).
The issue is not whether Ctl-J reformats the text, (it does), but, rather, what is causing the sudden loss of formatting in the beginning. It is not triggered by backspacing. It happens while I am typing (two finger, and not very accurately hitting keys, so you are correct that it probably has something to do with my typing). But it is unique to Pegasus - it does not happen in any other program - so my suspicion is that it is some key combination which does something particular in Pegasus. The really interesting aspect here is that apparently nobody else experiences this.
I just found that changing the Message font (start a new message and click on the "f" font icon) will change the font of the right pane (addresses) in the Distribution List window.
I had previously played with different settings. I just tried to send again and the emails went out. I re-typed my password on the "Login in to the SMTP server using....". Either before I had the wrong password or Comcast took me off the black list.
I go thru this every year with them. I'll need to figure something out for next year.
It isn't a big deal, but I thought Pegasus would wrap, since most e-mail clients do it automatically, like most word processors do.

As far as I know, you can control this in Tools | Options | Message formatting. However, I do believe that the broken line ends are on the recipient's end rather than yours. I regularly have to hit F5 or Ctrl+F5 to to be able to read a message properly, depending on its source (email client, web mail, etc.). I have no idea how this works in other email clients. What email clients do the people you send mail to use? Do they all use the same email client or different ones?
SMTP works fine now. It must have been one of those out-of-a-blue-moon server maintenance breaks. This ISP is normally very reliable. Thanks for your help. I updated my first post to "resolved/ignore".
If you are viewing the html version of a message you can change the default font color by editing Bearhtml.ini. Find the line that goes like Defaultfontcolor= and specify a color such as blue,black or white. In your case I would suggest coding DefaultFontColor=white But note that where the message composer sets a color, it cannot be overridden.
Suddenly, Pegasus does not retain any new sort order. Every time I close and reopen a folder it reverts to the last sort order in effect before it "lost its memory".
Anyway, I was able to solve the problem in the meantime:
In the "address book properties" there are a couple of options to either use or not use the aliases either for each individual addressbook or for all addressbooks at once:
Choose "Addressbooks" from the "Addresses" menu, click the "Book"... button on the toolbar and choose "Addressbook properties" to access those options.
For some reason, "Apply the e-mail address instead of the alias" was enabled for all of my addressbooks.
