Trust me, anyone that has more than 640x480 screen resolution will most
likely appreciate the line length and select their own client to do the
wrapping.  In my case, I tend to hit enter and create a new line around
the 60-70 character mark anyway.  This is fine for composing messages,
and when I do get that text file that's a little extra wide, I can send
it with confidence that I won't be introducing anything unexpected in
the file.  132 is just the maximum number you can choose in outlook. It
also happens to fit a certain video terminal width perfectly.  You can
set the number up to 9999 in netscape, but I never set it higher than
255.
