Yes! I understand your point.

Your email was, btw, not in ``format=flowed``.  The header
line of it was::

   Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

Since the parameter ``format`` is missing the email defaults to
``format=fixed`` according to RFC3676 (section 4 third paragraph).

Only if the header contains the parameter format=flowed
reformating should happen.  For example::

   Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; format=flowed

And even than long lines should only be wrapped where they
contain white space.  And this behaviuor should become an
option in the mailgw section of ``config.ini``.
