RFC 2822 (the mail standard that replaced 822, and to which mailgate
ought to conform) recommends that lines hard-wrap at 78 characters, and
requires that they do so before (I think it's) 998 characters.  On the
network, that's with a *network* EOL (CRLF), though it's usually
represented differently internally depending on your platform.
