I thought that these were a way to send long lines via sites which
have some affinity to the eighty-column mindset?  Please note that
often, the soft return comes after the 72nd (or so) character, in the
middle of a word.

I think the wrapping of long lines should be the same, whether
MIME-encoded with soft returns or not.
