Wrt my initial comment, I think that we have API support for doing base64
encoding with a maximum length. We don't have that for QP.

Well and in the specific HTML sample we don't use base64, the relevant section
is RFC2822, 3.5:
   A message consists of header fields, optionally followed by a message
   body.  Lines in a message MUST be a maximum of 998 characters
   excluding the CRLF, but it is RECOMMENDED that lines be limited to 78
   characters excluding the CRLF.

I'm not entirely sure what the generator is supposed to do when it gets content
with long lines (can content lines get folded?). Probably we would switch to
base64 with the line length limit.
