Bug Description

The mailing list archive (at least in Natty Chromium) doesn't line wrap some messages, which makes them hard to read. The one I noticed was c-t text/plain, with no line breaks. I haven't checked the spec but I think wrapping to the window would make sense.

Example:

https://lists.launchpad.net/launchpad-dev/msg07244.html

The original of that message is:

A warning from experience: beware that our current feature flag story works pretty well for beta testing authenticated users, but not so well for anonymous users. We should be vigilant to make sure that things work for anonymous users before turning flags on for everyone--presumably by turning flags on for everyone on local instances and then on qastaging/staging (as appropriate) and doing some exploratory testing.
