Basically yes. If I have a CIO that's too ST*P*D to use carriage returns, do you think he even knows/cares what PGP is? This wouldn't have to be a site-wide change, just for certain lists. And that's why I like the fmt option. It's done through aliases, so I can selectively turn it on/off.
If you're going to use a command-line tool, take the time to learn "par". It reformats much more intelligently, although it has a higher learning curve. You would need to install it as additional software under either FreeBSD or Solaris, but at least for FreeBSD there should be a port definition for it.
I doubt that you will regret the time you take to learn "par" over "fmt".
