Could you please add "white-space: pre-wrap;" in to the style string in the mail body <pre style="..."> tags, to ensure that white space is preserved but long lines are wrapped in the window. Please see referenced links to messages using standard "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed", and preceding messages in this thread. -- Take care.
