 * I cant figure out how to permanently adjust the “your message” box width to a
   fixed width. Is it possible? TIA

 * The overall size of the form elements is generally controlled by the CSS in your
   current WordPress theme rather than the “size” you use in the Form section of
   the CF7. This refers to the size of the standard HTML size attribute which may
   or may not control overall element size.
 * If you want to control the width of fields, you can do it by editing the CSS 
   stylesheet in your theme. For details, see [Styling Contact Form](http://contactform7.com/styling-contact-form/).
