usually ther eis a setting in your email options section that allows you
to specify line length. absolute max is 80 chars, politeness dictates more
along the lines of 76.

if you use outlook:

tools: options: send: plain text format (cos we all know you piucked the
plain text only stuff already) - set line wrap to 76. o AND you can pick
right there to indent your replies with the character of your choice, and
the > is nicely defaulted already.
