First, thanks much for letting me know. Sorry about that.
(Please see below for hopefully-corrected version.)

Second, the guilty program is MS Outlook 2007. 

(At least it's not nearly as terrible as Word 2007.)

For the benefit of others, here's what I just tweaked:

    Tools/Options/Mail Format/Internet Format
    Under "Plain Text Options", 
        I set "Auto. Wrap Text at [132] Chars."
        (that's the max. value it will accept)

Apparently this only works for non-HTML mail. 
(So I guess it's back to Vim for editing/wrapping.)
