It's not so much a mailing list configuration problem than an
email client configuration problem.

The recommended line length in text is 60-70 characters. It's a
good compromise between vertical space use and readability and it
fits comfortably in a standard terminal (80 columns).

Your emails use close to 100 characters per line.
