format=flowed encodes hard-newlines in the message, while still wrapping
the source of the message to 80 columns. This allow compliant readers to
either show the wrapped text or flow the content to the window's
margins.

For the composer, it means no more auto-fill required, no wrap achtung!s
required for long URLs, and (with some message-mode magic) easier
quoting since you would only have one quotation mark per
paragraph.

For the reader, it means customizable wrapping behavior.

Claws-Mail has good support for format=flowed that works exactly like
this.

I'm all for format=flowed. Even if you don't know it yet, you want it
too ;)
