It's not you/your-client, it's his client doing it, AFAIK. Your lines looked fine here as originally posted, but as you observed, unwrapped as he quoted them. FWIW that's one of the reasons I use a client[1] that can toggle wrap. It's not perfect, but if a user posts ascii-art or table output that has to be wrapped as posted to be reasonably readable, I toggle the wrapping off, so wrapping is as-posted. If a user posts output with extremely long lines, I toggle it on, wrapping the lines on my side. (What's bad is when the two occur in the same post. Then I have to toggle it on and off in the same post! Replying to posts with table data can also be "interesting" as there's a separate toggle for reply wrapping, but if I toggle it off in ordered to keep quoted table data aligned, then I have to manually wrap my own lines. Or I can just manually wrap everything. Like I said, not perfect, but it works.) --- [1] I read/respond to the mailing lists via gmane.org's list2news service.
