This sounds almost like 'text/plain; format=flowed' as described in:

RFC2646 The Text/Plain Format Parameter. R. Gellens. August 1999.
     (Format: TXT=29175 bytes) (Updates RFC2046) (Status: PROPOSED
     STANDARD)

A number of implementations seem to botch the 'SHOULD be shorter than
80 characters' suggestion in section 4.1 of that RFC, resulting in very
long on-the-wire lines which are "flowed" into readability by some MUAs.

Would that explain your symptoms?
