In my case, i just set up an emacs macro to reformat a quoted paragraph and
then put the cursor right after it, ready to reformat the next one.. so on
the rare occasions that i'm replying to a message with a long line, i just
tap the macro shortcut a few times and all the paragraphs i want to rewrap
are done.

I originally made it automatic, but i found that it would often end up
rewrapping stuff that i would have wanted it to leave alone.
