Yes, it is very difficult to read, and currently other posters are very
good, so your posts are instantly recognisable, I'm afraid.

I've fished out a procmail recipe for automatic line wrapping on
receipt, that I had used until munging of code patches was a problem.
(So I'm all right now. ;-)

In the old days there was a 72 column convention. This allowed quoting
of a post to remain within 80 columns AFAIR. It's something I still
adhere to.
