Actually, it is typed into a macro program that has some margin settings in it already. Then I cut and paste it from the macro engine into the e-mail and boards post

=/\= USS MANTICORE BRIEFING #911, STARDATE 51606.20 =/\= The Manticore was caught in a huge energy and gravitational rift that was created by the collision of Yaku energy absorption and the unique and unknown Haiweh energy source.

That explosion also threw us through the rift and we found ourself in unknown space surrounded by three large ships from the National Space Exploration Administration. =/\= END USS MANTICORE BRIEFING #911, STARDATE 51606.20 =/\= 160620.txt

A very sad turn of events and a terrible way to die (not that there are "good ways," mind you)
