Are you perchance using an old client which doesn't comprehend "format-flowed"?

No. I read on the web interface. In my job I get ~150 emails a day, so I pipe the Wikilist digest stuff straight into the trash and read it at http://www.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2003-April/date.html

Try it for yourself. Some posts you have to horizontal scroll all over the place.
