I'm not surprised, with the line length in your emails.

You need to set wrapping at about 72 or 75 chars from the *left* margin,
not at 10 chars from the right, when it's dependent on the current
screen width. How to do this depends on which program you're using
(there's a lot of vi clones, so saying "vi" isn't specific enough).
