Plain text -- fixed-length lines, about 70-80 characters -- usually is not displayed correctly on a phone, whose screen is narrower than that. You could turn the phone sideways, and hope that the mail reader rotates with it. Some do, some don't. text/plain format=flowed (RFC 3676) can be automatically word-wrapped to fit the screen, if the mail reader knows to do that. (Both this message and void's message that it replies to, are text/plain format=flowed.) I hear that Gmail's app for Android does not either understand flowed text or rotate. I hear that Apple's iPhone mail reader does both.
