10000 chars is huge - This is the default setting. I would expect
common small paragraphs to respect it, but 70 is what I commonly see and
it is inconsistent, pretty much your comment are right on the mark.

like i say sometime i see paragraphs with lines that rejoin the previous
line. this is baffling. the message you replied with - all wrapped at
about 70 chars. i looked through my sent.mail at the original message i
sent on this topic and it looks good. i don't generally use HTML
formatting options with the-list, but when i do in other email
correspondences the 70 char word wrap makes for a messy looking list.
it makes me wonder whether there could be something happening either via
my email provider or a the-list configuration which is causing the line
breaks?
i don't do much if any customization with email. this is just another
swamp to drain - and alligators are everywhere.
