The format=flowed is benign. It just tells the receiving MUA to wrap text where appropriate. The text line lengths are already correct. The problem is that computer output *shouldn't* be wrapped, and that's what your MUA is doing. It may be a limitation of an MUA which insists on reformatting for you. If you find a way of fixing it, please let me know and I'll add it to my pages at http://www.lemis.com/email/email-format.html. I'll answer the technical question separately.
