That's a slippery slope. What about the threads where there are more than
five quotes (5 * "> " is 80-10 = 70 characters)?
Besides, the line wrapping settings (margins and wordwrap) don't affect text
that is already entered. Since you can't automagically reduce the line width
of the quoted mails, you could only reduce the width of your lines and make
your own ^KJ function more efficient, but you still have to do that each
time you get a new mail with "broken" quotes.
