 Hi,

 Indeed, this function gets called with every header mutt produces... be
 it for display or for outgoing messages. It's only purpose is to wrap
 overly long header lines but leave everything as-is (i.e. honor
 preformatted headers). In particular, there's no prior unfolding taking
 place.


 The builtin pager displays tempfiles only so the decoded header is
 written out to the tempfile.


 Well, I don't think it's that wrong. Sure, these are different
 operations but breaking long header lines is basically the same so both
 share the same code (well, except that for readability on display we
 want to fold with tab).
