As I wrote in another part of this thread, in 2025 any MUA that can’t wrap received text to the preference of the viewer deserves a bug filed against that MUA. For example, every graphical MUA of which I am aware (like Thunderbird and Roundcube, which you mention) can wrap text to the desired length by resizing the viewable window. If your does not, I would recommend filing a bug report against your MUA. -- Soren Stoutner so...@debian.org
