Ok thanks Tom I checked my personal settings and they are set to standard 72 for reading and 55 for composing. Sometime if it's a big reply I scroll over and do the printable option so it's easy to read.

What you are seeing Steve is that when someone replies to a message,
their e-mail client will typically re-format the quoted text. Depending
on how their client is set up, the quoted text may be line wrapped at
70 columns (very readable) or it may not line wrap at all (resulting the
post being one HUGE line) or anywhere in-between. My client is set to
wrap at 72 characters.
