Maybe use sub-pattern matches to break the line into multiple pieces and add
each piece?
pattern=^(.*some matching thing)(.{60})(.*)
action = add context $1; add context $2; add context $3
I think that will add three lines.
Use eval to create a perl function that will format its argument by
inserting newlines. Then in your action calling it on $0 "call
%{result} %{eval_fnction_handle} $0; add context %{result}".
When you report the context you could pipe it through fmt or some
other formatting program (but that may not be better than the wrapping
in the email client).
If you just need a newline after each line you add, assign a variable to
newline and add it:
assign %N \n; add context %N;
I am not sure if \n works for setting a newline though.
Let us know which of these ideas work.
