The Thunderbird section of the 'MUA-specific hints' contains three different approaches to setting up the mail client to leave patch emails unmolested. The second approach (configuration) has a step missing when configuring the composition window not to wrap. In particular, the "mailnews.wraplength" configuration variable needs to be set to zero. Update the documentation to add the missing setting.
