Now, maybe I'm old and crochety, but why don't people put a handy
linefeed (or <CR>) between each command line and each response
line? I just find it tedious to try to figure out exactly where a
given command ended, especially when a couple commands in a row are
left on a single line.
If this is my own fault for reading the archive with Camino (and
other browsers parse the archive web page text better), then I
apologize for this interruption.

That looks like a snippet from my reply earlier this week.
Here is the post online:
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-April/194676.html
I reviewed the post with Safari, Firefox and then installed Camino
1.6.7 on OSX. Looks fine in all of them. I did copy from an R console
when pasting the above, which did have the newline in the source.
I might expect a problem with an e-mail client that may have problems
displaying "format = flowed" e-mails which is the default in Apple
Mail when sending plain text e-mails, but in a browser I am not sure
if this should be an issue.
The page source for the post in the archive shows a newline so it is
not clear to me why you are having rendering issues.
More info on 'format = flowed' is available here:
http://joeclark.org/ffaq.html
and the formal spec is here:
