Scrollbar in email

Hi,

I am sending a text file through email as email-body. This file is having records which have width more than a page.
When i recieve the email, i can see no scrollbar in the email. So its not easy to read the mail as multiple pages are shrinked into one page.

I want to have horizontal scrollbar in the email.

Iam using the following command to send email:
mailx -s "subject" 'mail_id' < file.txt

Can any one know how can we get this? let me know if iam not clear.



Thanks,
Srilaxmi

What you read your email with is not controlled by anything you use to send the email with (in fact its impossible). You should be constructing your emails so they are easily viewed in most email clients, or send them as HTML encoded emails in which case the email client might display it with a scrollbar, might.
