I've noticed that when you compose and send a mail in Roundcube that if you
just type your message and do not press enter every 76 characters or so that
roundcube just sends the email with one huge long line of text. This makes
people who's mail readers (or things like mailing list web archives) complain
and they always tell you off and say to set your mail reader to make a newline
every 76 characters or so or else they have to scroll across one huge long line
of text.
When you view the message in roundcube (the sent folder) it looks fine, the
display of the message does some wrapping, but if you view the source then you
can see the huge long line.
Is it possible to get an option added to set a wordwrap length during composing?
This mail has been deliberatly typed in this way to show you what I mean. It
should look perfectly fine in the message viewer but the source of the message
should have the paragraphs only taking up one single huge long line.

PS: I've got the 76 characters figure from taking a quick look at the options
in MS Outlook where it's set to wrap at 76 chars.
I've mentioned something similar to this before but it hasn't yet been
addressed. I think RC should let you type at will and wrap whenever, and
then break the lines at 76 and use proper flowed text before handing the
message off to the MTA. In a similar vein, it should really take flowed
email messages and cut out the linebreaks after soft wraps.
