When messages are saved to a "file" (using the <save-message> 
command), they're saved in mbox format, which is pretty close to the 
raw message---and the RFCs strongly encourage that messages be wrapped 
to 72 characters.

I guess my point is: it's doing that on purpose... what exactly is it 
that you're trying to achieve? There's probably a better way to 
achieve it.
