I installed mutt and tried to reply to that email, and mutt showed me the Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 source. I'm not sure if that's what you saw. If you saw the decoded text, I copied it into vim and vim seems to wrap it just fine.
Thankfully you usually don't copy the message into vim, but you hit R)eply, L)ist Reply or reply A)ll and mutt fires up the Editor for you.
Would you kindly show me how it looked on your side?
In the Editor, the long lines show up as long lines, with the disadvantage that you either quote them not at all, or completely, or have to go through intra-line editing to just leave what you want to quote, and if it's a really long line vim will not show it at all instead of partially.
That is surely something that one could adapt to, but I'd hate having to.
Notes and Outlook have done incredible damage to E-Mail culture, introducing Top-Posting as the widely accepted (but totally inferior) way to have discussions in e-mail. Please let us consider using a method that doesn't make discussions harder.
