Yahoo mail not word-wrapping sometimes

I found another thread where someone was having a similar issue:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7233171&#7233171

I occasionally end up with emails that roll way off the screen to the right, and have to scroll back and forth repeatedly to read the message. It doesn't do this with all the messages, but it's really irritating when it does. I'm trying to figure out if there's any correlation between this happening, and what service I'm corresponding with (ie: the messages I notice it on are from other Yahoo accounts, but were composed on a PC, not a phone), though it's not consistent.

What I notice is that it's when there is quoted text in the message. If I have someone send me a new message it will be fine, but one with long, quoted text from the same person is so small as to be unreadable, and the scrolling is very annoying. So I wonder if it has something to do with the way the quoted text is being formatted. I haven't tried using plain text.

Anyway, hopefully someone will have an idea. It's pretty aggravating.
