Do Emails I've Sent Look Like They Do When I Check The 'sent Items', Or The Way They Did When I Sent Them?

I sent an email. It looked ok while I sent it, but when I looked for it under 'sent items' in my hotmail, the sentences started in the middle.

So, what does the email look like to the person who received it, the way it did when I sent it, or the way it does when I find it under 'sent items'?
And no, I can't email that person and ask.

That's odd right enough. I've not come across that.
Send one to yourself and see.
That sounds very strange. How it looks to the recipient might depend on which email client they use - e.g. Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo etc. WBM's suggestion to send one to yourself is a good one, particularly if you know which email provider they use and can use the same one to check.
No, you can't precisely determine the way it'll look. Even forced line endings, which you might use to break up text, might come out 'wrong' on the receiving machine, depending how theirs is set up.

And sending an email to yourself wouldn't help, as your machine DOES have the parameters you've set!

If you have a good friend, ask them to take a screen-shot of your email and send that back to you as an attachment. That'll show you how your email arrived there, at least.
