RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

text/plain email

Your message is expected to do that, more or less, because the sender has there a text within <pre></pre>, which means evolution should keep it as is. I found an email which is text/plain and suffers of the same issue as that yours. There can be an option to "always wrap", as is done for printing. Maybe it makes sense to implement it.

message in Evolution

I would vote for this "break up lines always" methodology. Compare the screenshot of the same message in Thunderbird and Evolution. The result of TB is that it looks much neater and I can have much more narrow columns for reader, so that it feels like there is much more space in TB, whereas Evo looks always a bit cramped.

Upstream bug report about the <pre>:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686012

I tried to play with webview.css a bit recently, but it didn't work, I might do something wrong for sure. The CSS files are stored at:
   /share/evolution/3.6/theme/
but it seems to me that simply replacing the UI's .css file with the print's .css file doesn't work - it didn't for me with the Math email from comment #1. As I said, I might do something wrong for sure.

I just fixed this within bug #864904
