Nope. Just because you refuse to believe in a world beyond the teletype doesn?t mean one
doesn?t exist. The RFC you cite even admits that; the recommendation for 78-character
lines is not a MUST in any case.
I?m actually a little surprised you?re citing such a recent RFC, honestly, rather than
something from the early 1990s.
Also, in case you weren?t aware, just like an Internet-Draft isn?t an RFC, an RFC isn?t a
standard. This one is a proposed standard, but it?s been one for over a decade now, so I
wouldn?t hold my breath on it.

(Speaking
of best practices, you're generating paragraph-length
lines; you might want to read RFC 3676.)
That???s up to the receiving MUA to deal
with, not the sending one.
