Text Wrapping In GMail

I use GMail as my everyday email program. Unfortunately, when someone sends me an email with a long image in it, GMail wraps the text in line with the image. So if I have to scroll to see the image, then I will have to scroll way to the right to see the text too. It's most annoying. Also, GMail to not provide a way to force the text to wrap to 100 characters (for instance) like most native-OS email programs do.

To get around this, I installed the Web Developer Tools toolbar for Firefox, and used it to hard wrap my text. The option is in Miscelaneous::Linearize Page. I use it when I view the prinatable version of the page (because I like to print the page). Works well :)
