How about some way to fold, but with lines longer than 80 characters.  Or
is the problem that any folding at all is going to hose things?  I suppose
in that case you should try to keep as much on the first line as possible.

BTW, the practical length limit is a paltry 254 characters if you don't
want to bounce off of idiotic sites.  I get lots of bounces from my mailing
lists every time someone includes an unfolded X-Face with 255 characters in
it.  And note that the References: line for this message is already over
that limit with only seven Message-IDs in it.
