I can't see how wrapping would work for us, there are just too many different mail clients involved, and I assume the same would apply to lots of lists. I'd prefer if the user experience was uniform. 

We mung just the affected emails. That means there are two styles of emails being sent out, but at least each type can be read the same way by everyone. If the affected memebers don't want to be munged, then they'll have to change mail providers.

I also can't see it working to let the sender choose how their emails will be treated. There are so many side effects of each different treatment, and the user is only able to test the results with their own mail client. They'll inevitably choose the one that works best for them, and wonder why other people are messing up the replies to their messages.
