In the latest version of SeaMonkey, something has changed in text
vs. html mail. I used to be able to paste as plain text, and
everything would wrap neatly in the received email. Now, it seems
the default is paste as text, but when the email is received, it
has line breaks where they were in the original. How do I get back
to a flowing wrap?

I hadn't noticed any recent changes; but this is a longstanding issue
that I've never fully resolved.

Even with plain text, sometimes there are hidden line breaks that
destroy the readability of forwarded or "replied to" messages.

I don't know where they come from or how to remove them, although I've
tried everything under the sun!

I do plain text in email about 99.9998% of the time. To get rid of "hidden" line breaks I switch from windowed to fullscreen to change the displayed line lengths, then backspace from the hard breaks and delete all but the first "quote" mark. On switching back to windowed after finishing backspacing, sometimes stragglers show up, which I remove the same way. Once that's done, edit->rewrap restores quote marks to appropriate locations according to configured composition line length.
