My $0.02:

When PMMail appears in a small window on my Thinkpad, it displays 73 
characters.   If a quoted text arrives with natively longer lines, I
will see a ragged edge, which is quite troublesome, as it is hard to
read or alternatively I must maximize the window, which I sometimes
find inconvenient due to other tasks being open.

Therefore out of consideration for others I limit my outgoing mail to
about 70 characters, so as to allow for quote symbols.    I hope 
others will show me the same consideration.

Kind regards to all,
