To change the ways the browers wrap in textareas there is a property called wrap, that's right, but you can't use it with CSS since you need to specify it in the textarea tag itself. So in the following files, locate the textarea tag and either change wrap="xxx" to wrap="physical" or add the key/value pair to the tag when necessary:

email.tmpl
mmod.tmpl
mvthread.tmpl
post.tmpl
ppost.tmpl
register.tmpl
remail.tmpl
report.tmpl
thr_exch.tmpl
usrinfo.tmpl

Note 1: Possible values for the wrap attribute are "off", which disallows word wrapping, "physical", which allows word wrapping and send the text with line breaks in tact when transmitting the data using scripting, and "virtual", which show word wraps in the box but sends the data as one long string of text when transmitting the data with scripts.
There also are "hard" and "soft" but as far as I know only Netscape interpretates these.

Note 2: http://www.askbjoernhansen.com/archives/2002/03/17/000003.html might be an interesting read if you have Mozilla-using visitors.
