THis is a great concept and one we all need to remember. I use aWeber for managing my email lists and have been very happy with them.

It is built in with a ‘recommended width’. However if you are preparing your own emails a good text editor which tells you how wide you are is UltraEdit. There’s a free and paid version.

Another good point about narrow columns of text and greater white space with hard carriage returns (hitting the enter key) is it LOOKS like it’s less and will be easier to read.

The PERCEPTION of ease is very important to getting the compliance you want…where you visitors read all your stuff because they believe it will be easy.
