It is totally dependant upon the news reader that receives it.  I think my
reader goes out to 2048 characters before it forces a line wrap.  You
could, however, post it here first and then possibly create a web page
(setting the font size to fit a 1024x768 view) and post add the url at the
bottom.

I see that you have Outlook 6?  You'll probably need to change your line
settlings before attempting anything over 76 characters. I just checked OE6
and the most you can send would be 999 characters per line.

/news/options/send/set news sending format to plain text/plain text
settings/automatically wrap lines at/?? 999 = max
