If this happened when you pasted or replied/forwarded with selections, then I
believe this is related to the auto wrapping.  Often I see this behavior when
I'm pasting blocks which has lines with (wrap at XX characters)+, like 79+
chars in my case.

To avoid this, I have to disable auto wrap (Edit > Auto Wrapping).  Usually I
compose all the message first, disable auto wrap, paste snippets and then
send the message, so I don't have to manually wrap the message.

For example I'm pasting top's header: first with auto-wrap enabled, and then
disabling auto wrap before pasting (I've composed the whole message already).

Auto wrapping enabled:
