I don't see why MUAs should have to accommodate the viewing environment
of other MUAs, 80 characters is too short when pasting in long lines
(e.g. from a log file) and also annoying since my screen is wider than
80 characters.

I've sent another email to postmaster at sendmail.net, with a retry rate
of every 6 hours for 5 days. I assume this is appropriate, I couldn't
find a clear definition of how often sendmail would retry.

I have also sent the email from <>, assuming it never gets past MAIL
FROM that should make it listable in DSN.
