It's a shared server and i don't have access to the pipermail or mailman installation. (Even if i can make changes per-list, they are likely to be overwritten by the cpanel app). It would be better to scrap pipermail, but mailman has builtin links, so there it is. Anyhow, the little wordwrap hack (it is a hack, and unsightly) works for me, for now, and i can see Ilia's reasoning about not compensating for other programs bugs, so all is well.
As to 80 char wrapping: sure, we're enslaved to history, but... the design freaks have a point about line-length affecting readability. Your eye just gets lost past a certain line-length. And, the printed page gives you about 80 chars across in a readable font-size.
cheers.
