Here is my simple line folding filter.
Going with getc() is a lot simpler but this way seems faster and it was fun to
play around with. And it seems to work.
This will break long lines exactly at the specified length without regard to
whitespace. In the header, a tab (\t) is added after added newlines.
This would work for e.g. attachments formatted as one very long line of base64.
It could cause problems in other cases.
