Plain text mail should be created adhering to format=flowed (RFC 3676), 
which allows each displaying client to wrap lines for the window size 
(reflowing as the window size changes).

Format=flowed sends each paragraph with lines no longer than 80 
characters, but because of the format=flowed marking on the MIME type, 
each displaying client knows it can remove the CRLF within a paragraph 
and reflow as appropriate. Lines that are fixed width are marked so 
displaying clients know not to reflow them. It also marks quote levels.
