When I am typing an email, sentences wrap at around 1/3 of the screen. Incoming email wraps at the entire width of the screen. I would like my generated emails to wrap sentences at 100% of the screen width.

How do I adjust the margins for generated email?

This article is a little 'techie' for some, but does address the margin size, or wrapping on your screen when you compose.

It might give you some idea of solutions. It involves getting in to the config editor, which can be dangerous if you are not careful.
