msglist.js doesn't rely on putmsg() to do the word-wrapping and instead calls the JS global function word_wrap(), but only when appropriate. It likely should *not* be using this to word-wrap the message tails, but it currently treats the tails as just part of the message body (and so they go through word-wrap too).

How are you doing the word wrap on your side - calling the JS global word_wrap() or your own functions?

Sure, or you can check and confirm that the messages in question all have 2
data fields each (a separate body and tail), e.g.
data_field[0] TEXT_BODY, offset 0, length 1181
data_field[1] TEXT_TAIL, offset 1181, length 71
