I think you'll find that:
  - if you uncheck `Wrap Outgoing Text at...', your subsequent outgoing 
messages aren't wrapped.  Any message in progress isn't affected.
  - if you uncheck `Wrap Incoming Text at...', messages you read in any 
new message window aren't wrapped.  Any message window that's already 
open isn't affected.  However, that includes the preview pane in the 
main window (which is all I use!), so that wouldn't reflect the change 
until you next start Balsa.

I've entered this at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63670 
(as an enhancement :), and added a small patch to synchronize the 
preview pane with the checkbox on the preferences page.
