While FUDforum is a mail client of sorts in this situation, I'd still say that failure to wrap on long lines with valid spaces is a mail client deficiency.

Well, in this case, this is pipermail (mailman archiver) problem.. The mail looks fine, but in the archive, it scrolls all the way out. ..I thought it might be worth noting since mailman is so common..

Forcing wordwrap() on mail body could create all sort of problems especially when working with full-body notification.

Yeah, because i think notification doesn't make sense when there is a synced mailing list, i have it turned off anyhow. Well, that is not true, i changed the user_opt(?) to have it default off during registration. Don't you think having email notification with a linked mailing list is redundant and confusing?
Hmm, in general, do you think that the mailing-list integration works as well as the rest of the forum? I think the forum is amazing, and i didn't find any other forum that synchronizes with a mailing list as easily (only phpbb, and that needs a mod). But the mailing list integration part seems like it is less well-developed (which is not a fudforum problem necessarily - it's just that mailing lists are old-fashioned, i think, and there are so many mail protocols and mail clients). Maybe i'm missing something though.
Thanks for your thoughts and time.
