These are the default values.

Calculating FFT Values
For many mail environments, it will be necessary to calculate values for LM, RM,
GFID, FWD, and FA. The default values allow mail of the maximum width (255
characters) to be viewed.
If you choose to set the margins to specific columns, you will need the following
information:
v left column number
v right column number
v pitch of the font (in characters per inch)
You can calculate values for the margins, LM and RM, using this formula:
LM = (left column number - 1) / (characters per inch) * 1440
RM = (right column number - 1) / (characters per inch) * 1440
Exception: use a margin of 1, not 0, for column 1.
For more examples of calculating values for margins, refer to the three examples
below:
Example 1:
Left column number = 1
Right column number = 255
GFID = 85, Courier 12
Font pitch = 12 characters per inch
LM=1
RM = ((255-1)/12*1440 = 30480
FWD = 1440/12 = 120
Assuming 55 lines /page, the QMAILFMT value would be:
'255/55/1/1/30480/85/120/1'
Example 2:
The default OV/400 Systems text profile has margins set at
columns 19 and 91 for a line length of 73 characters.
To set up the equivalent mail formatting using the Courier 10
font below, do the following:
Left column number = 19
Right column number = 91
GFID = 11, Courier 10
Font pitch = 10 characters per inch
