The message was sent with the headers
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed"

AFAIK the interpretation of the content as flowed depends on
preservation of the trailing spaces on lines which are to be continued
(ie the next line should be affixed to it). If they're lost or
ignored, the text doesn't flow.

I assume the loss occurred between decoding the base64 and displaying
the text.

I don't use format=flowed myself, so I have to make allowances for
those that do. I don't like posting long lines or html myself either.

Cheers,
David.
