I've noticed that the line breaks in emails that I send from Sup look bad 
on mobile devices (or at least they look terrible on the gmail android 
app). The problem seems to come from a collision between the hard 
line-wraps that Vim inserts and the wrapping that the android client uses 
to display the message (basically the default gmail client doesn't reflow 
the paragraphs). 

Is there something I can do on my end to send emails that other readers 
(especially those more geared toward html messages) will have an easier 
time displaying? I was playing around with just setting up vim for soft 
wrapping, but I don't love that solution (for vim-based reasons). 

Thanks,
Dave

This could be related to format-flowed, which is not set to true in sup.
Check out this old PR: https://github.com/sup-heliotrope/sup/pull/228

That sounds promising. Is this a feature that wasn't implemented? I tried 
just adding ":format-flowed: true" to config.yaml, with no apparent effect.

No, it wasn't implemented, the PR needed some more work.
