I get email messages from one person and they seem to be fixed line
length. That is, if I shrink the window that has the message body, the message gets cut off at the edge of the window.
What causes this?
What can I tell this person to do so that her emails wrap?

Could be a bunch of things. What do the message headers (and part
headers, if multipart) say? Is it text/plain with "format=fixed"?
Or text/html with <pre> or what?

MUA options are beyond my expertise.

mailx is a fine program
Headers below:...
MIME-Version: 1.0...
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_=aspNetEmail=_4fbe7268c12542b1b9bec01e71d8ecde" --_=aspNetEmail=_4fbe7268c12542b1b9bec01e71d8ecde
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Very ordinary headers, not sure why that would display funny.
Do they used only non-breaking spaces or something crazy like that?

removed all the non-MIME headers
Thanks, Eli. How could I tell if they used non-breaking spaces?
