I've tried too, but without success.

I've the fill-adapt-minor-mode in effect. The help says, the fill
functions insert soft linebreaks only if use-hard-newlines is in
effect. But I find out the fill functions had inserted hard
linebreaks, in result the sended message has only hard newlines in
it. Because of this for the recipient's system was every linebreak a
new paragraph, displayed with an empty line before.

Are you sure, the flowed message is encoded correctly?
You should verify the raw text.

I've give up this mode ...
