This is not a listserv problem.

The sending mailer is the one who breaks lines.  Listserv won't break
lines, I have seen lines that are thousands of characters long.
Listserv will send exactly what it gets.

The receiving mailer is responsible for recognizing a hyperlink and
passing it on to the browser when it is clicked on.  If it has a bad
hyperlink, there is no way it can do a proper link.
