Your message arrived in my Inbox with headers:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=WINDOWS-1252
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Any well-featured reader can deal with this without suffering
wrapping problems. You shouldn't be obliged to apologize
for you recipients' deficient software.

Alas, another recent message with a similar Subject: appeared with:
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
and URLs adversely wrapped. That author should get better Mail software,
or configure the existing one better.

Same here. Folks with stupidly broken corporate email systems may not have the control they'd like.



When I was at Sterling, outbound email would randomly show @reston.vmd.sterling.com (or thereabouts) instead of @sterling.com.
Played havoc with lists and the like. Nobody ever figured it out before CA ate them.
