 Just the think that he wrote -- the body *text*.  Just like in your
message, your text-line was 86 chars wide. Due to the fact that people
have it easiest to read if the text is not wider than 72 characters so
they can easily wrap to the next line and that usual text terminals are
limited to 80 chars because of this (there was never a need for more and
still isn't) it would be nice if you keep up with that rule so the
readers won't have to wrap it themself (and make OE quote like hell :/
).
