Well, technically it's 'folding', used to ensure that headers doesn't
hit the SMTP linelength limit. But maybe one of the gateway scripts

I don't know anything about news, but if it's based on SMTP, I'd think
that it should handle it allright. On the other hand, if that's not
the case, that could be the problem.
