[Tutor] formatting*

I'm using Mandrake 10.1 [Linux] OS to view the internet thru Firefox. In my mailbox, everything is fine--my stuff formats well (and when it comes back to me as Tutor 'mail' it also formats correctly).
The problem is over at the Tutor Archives (mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor), i.e., the Tutor forum site. That's where whatever I composed formats out with no line wrap, and a paragraph becomes a single line, stretching out however far it needs to. In all the time I've been perusing the forum (before jumping in to participate) I have seen "occasionally" a contributor's offering will suffer the same fate. Now my entries are doing so as well. I don't know if everybody who goes to the forum site sees these format problems as I do (apparently not--from your response), but there they are on my screen.
Hope I've answered your questions with some degree of understandability.

How are you viewing the messages?
I have never seen that problem. Are you using a web browser or a newsreader?
Which OS, which site?
