Courier 10pt typeface on A4 letter, or 80x25
displays marginspace etc all common concepts all
need hard line wrapping with contextual wrapping and
layout in plaintext, as well as few MUA actually soft wrap
for display but instead hard wrapping, let alone many
webmail mangle beyond 70, many even shorter.
Best is to apply the roughly 70 char email etiquette,
which happens to allow at least a few levels of quoted
replies by MUAs which in all likelihood will be hard
wrapping single received lines anyways. Single lines in
text editors are major pain, and the netiquette requires
multiline reply editing anyways. Humans read parse and
edit in line oriented book form anyways too. These old written
and unwritten standards exist for reasons.
If stupid lazy noobs want to invent a new charstream format,
go spec it out. Else go read a nice multiline book.
See also fmt(1) and neomutt options.

This one is bullshit.

Let my MUA wrap to whatever its window size is.

That would be the mailing list owner(s).

E-mail netiquette, in various forms, has been around since at least the
late 80s. A good portion of it can be found in RFC1855 (released 1995),
or in texts like "Zen and the art of Internet" (1992). Graramp played
fast with a rule himself by using a rather provocative tone, but I think
he is correct in pointing out that some people have been rather lax or
thoughtless in this list. Top-posting and full quotes definitely make my
teeth itch. ;-)

5) WRAP your lines at around 72 characters long,
or set your mailer to do this.

[tor-relays] How to post to this list

2018-01-28 Thread grarpamp 
1) DO NOT Top Post, backwards it's because that's,
reply below what you're replying to.
2) DO NOT Bulk Quote, trim what you're replying to down
to the minimum size needed to convey the relavant context.
3) DO NOT Block Reply, piecewise interleave your replies
below each piece of context to which you are replying.
4) DO NOT send HTML, set you rmailer to compose
and send plain text emails.

Far too many breaking basic "email netiquette" lately.
Learn more by searching that quote.
