RFC 2822 states that line lengths in emails must be less than 998. Some MTA's add newlines to messages if any line
exceeds a certain limit (the exact limit varies). Sendmail goes so far as to add '!\n' after the 990th character in
a line. To ensure that messages look consistent this helper function wraps long lines to a conservative length.
