Reduce the, "subject," length. For example, the subject of this response is, "Re: Message exceeds 80 charachters?"

Perhaps your hitting the, "reply," button added the, "Re:," which threw it over the 80 char limit.

Do what I mentioned above. I had that same message until I followed my own tip.

Yep, I had to reduce the length of the thread subject to get it to let me post.
