Cotty's email app is sending plain text with 72-character lines and
without the
format=flowed setting, which would instruct the receiving email client to
unbreak the lines; the angle bracket syntax is designed to tell an email
client
to sew a URL back together even if format=flowed was not used, but several
email clients (e.g. Mail, Thunderbird) respect format=flowed better
than they
respect angle brackets
Interesting - can't see a way to change it.
I use Powermail 5.6.5 on a Mac 10.6.8
i just learned a bit about PowerMail; it's an interesting branch in the email
client lineage ... it looks like it handles incoming URLs with angle brackets
better than most, but i infer from this thread and a search of its user manual
that it doesn't support format=flowed:
<http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16079.html>
however it looks like the newest version will stop imposing old-fashioned line
length limits, which should in effect fix the URLs for many recipients:
'• Kinder URL encoding:
Implemented a long-standing request from several users to no longer wrap
outgoing plain-text messages at 78 characters. This will help recipients of
PowerMail messages whose mail clients did not honor RFC 1738 for the formatting
of URL's in between "<" and ">" marks.'
