Important to this discussion is the fact that your OE msg is f=f;
format=flowed.

That means your wraps are 'soft' as opposed to hard.

X-RFC2646: Format=Flowed; Original


However, since the information appears in an X-line, my agent doesn't
treat it the same as if it were in a Content-type line, which is the way
my agent does it.

When I used OE, I found OE Quote-Fix by Dominik Jain to be invaluable.
Those old links are dead.
