I wouldn't really say "a lot more" (at least when not dealing with
quoted text), but definitely more.

You mean not wrapped.

I suppose it *could* be classified as such, but I don't see much point
in doing so.  The whole point of format=flowed is so that paragraphs
will wrap in programs that support it, but still be readable with
programs that don't do wrapping.

It also doesn't follow part of RFC 2646:

] When generating Format=Flowed text, lines SHOULD be shorter than 80
] characters.  As suggested values, any paragraph longer than 79

Your nested quoting was also done incorrectly.  According to section 4.5
of RFC 2646 there should be no space between the '>' marks at the start
of quoted lines.
