Bit of a problem there (with long text lines).  If I want to be able to send 
http links to friends/
colleagues/family, I have to turn off the new line feature in my email client 
and allow end-user
email clients deal with formatting (all too often, if you have 
auto-formatting/new lines setup,
you will totally bork http links).  

What client are you using that is causing a problem?  Mutt?
