As it stands, this fixes the long-url problem completely for some
folks, while other mail clients(?) wrap the url for display, but keep
it intact for linking, and still others both wrap and break it at the
wrap point, so a manual edit is required to repair the url.
I'm happy with any improvement, but would welcome further suggestions
or insight. Would sending it as HTML mail (horrors!) guarantee no
wrap? Is there a way to get Mail.app do this? I tried making the first
line of the message be <HTML>, but that's clearly not it (didn't
really think so).
I don't use such services, but you could always use something like
TinyURL to generate short URLs that won't be broken on wrapping. If it
was an internal-only need you could trivially setup a service like this
on your own.
