You mean 72 characters/line? This doesn't work all the time, when replying or coping something it can happen that I get never ending lines. Usually people wish to get an auto-break after character 72. I'm using Evolution, but to be honest, Mozillas are better Mailers, but no native Linux mailers, anyway, also those mailers know the never ending line issue. I used several mailers, an eccentric extreme might be Wanderlust for Emacs, for this mailer there never is a line issue, but well, I'm sure you won't use Wanderlust. Btw. take a look at the emails headers by viewing the source, usually there is an entry for the mailer. I suspect you get something similar to this dummytextdummytextdumm ytext dummytextdummytextdumm ytext Right? Perhaps you need to edit the preferences from 80 to 72 characters.
