Hate to get into a religious war here, but there is a hard, factual standard here. RFC2646 which defines the MIME type text/plain format parameter. If you are reading a message with content type text/plain and format set to "flowed", and a non-quoted line of words appears that is too long (for various values of "too long", mostly between 60 and 80 characters or wider than your screen) then the problem is with the reader you are using. Period. I note that the message above with the 1500 character line of text is content type text/plain with format flowed.
