[Enigmail] Hey all; quick question

Firstly, I would just like to thank everyone on this list. I've gotten
some incredible help from individuals on this enigmail list, which has
been a refreshing break from the myriad wiki tabs and lengthy, dense
(albeit thorough and well-constructed) documentation. It's invaluable to
be able to get such immediate help.
Anyways, I had a quick question, because it's a problem that's been
plaguing me.
I've really started to appreciate what enigmail and gpg have to offer.
But I'm having an issue that I'd like to get people's feedback on. The
default of sending plain text (which I know is necessary for encryption)
auto-wraps thunderbird text at I think the default is 72 chars or so.
Well, when this flow is broken, people who copy paste text I send them
in emails (which is frequent cause I work as an editor at a news site)
have hard wrapped text, which presents a problem during the proofing and
production process.
Now I generally work from a separate account, but Tbird seems to have
global settings and my two accounts get lumped in with the same
auto-wrap problem.
Does anyone have any advice for me here. I would love to resolve this
by either changing the paragraph flow settings somehow or separating my
Tbird accounts so I can use my gmail for all encrypted email communication.
And one other really quick question... is there a way to share private
id info with gnupg so that the same authentication can be used on my
laptop as my desktop? or is this not plausible? Do I have to have a
separate public/private key set since it's a diff comp?
Thanks everyone,
Chris
