I have just done some tests, and I've seen that the lines I am seeing on the 
screen in various moments are shorter than the lines I see in Thunderbird, so 
this web interface is adding many extra newlines.

Too many words in a line make text harder to read, too few words on a line ask 
for too much scrolling and too many eye movements. I am seeing too much short 
lines.
