There are limits to the length of lines of e-mail messages.

If you can wrap lines to make them have no more than 75 characters that
is ok. If not, you can use quoted-printable encoding that breaks lines
after encoding, so the end mail program restores the original lines
without the breaks.

In either case, you may want to try this class that has a function named
WrapText to break line between words.

If you do not want to break the lines, the class can send you the
message parts using quoted printable encoding.
