What's common practice? What's it on the pgsql mailing lists?

The netiquette usually advise mailers to wrap after 72 characters on mailing lists. This does not apply for format=flowed I guess (that's the format used in Steinar's message).

It would apply to either; format=flowed can be wrapped at the receiver's end, but still be formatted to a particular column for readers that don't understand format=flowed. (Which is likely to be many, since that's a standard that never really took off.) No wrap netiquette applies to formatted text blocks which are unreadable if wrapped (such as bonnie or EXPLAIN output).
