Is there any possibility of implementing a "Word Wrap" feature in the
compose window? When I receive messages from particular people (mainly
hotmail and AOL accounts), almost every time I go to reply, the original
message runs off the screen, making it difficult to read. Viewing the
original is fine, word wrapped for easy reading. If the email is
HTML-formatted, same thing occurs (at least with Hotmail). Is this an
issue with the way these programs format the text, or something in
Evolution? 

I suspect the Ximian guys will say that the mail clients sending those
mails are broken.  At any rate, what I do in these cases is simply
select the offending text and change the format to Normal (it's probably
set to Preformat).  Then I'll indent the text to make it more clear that
it's quoted, since you'll only get one >.
