Here's an example of a header getting mangled (occurs on both 3.5.0-2.1
and 3.7.1-2):

If you have that header sitting in your inbox and attempt to forward it,
it becomes:

Begin forwarded message:

Similar things happen with message bodies and patches (insert
http://dev.queued.net/~dilinger/jffs2-fix.patch into a message and
email it to yourself; then attempt to forward it.  The patch gets
mangled).  Going into
Configuration->Preferences->Compose->Wrapping and unchecking "Wrap
quotation", "Wrap pasted text" and "Auto indent" doesn't help (I would've
thought that the quotation option would've done the trick).  Unchecking
"Auto wrapping" *does* fix it, but that's not at all what I want.. I
want claws to wrap the text that I manually type (or perhaps paste), but
not the text that I forward/quote.  It just becomes unreadable then.
