It would apply to either; format=flowed can be wrapped at the receiver's 
end, but still be formatted to a particular column for readers that 
don't understand format=flowed. (Which is likely to be many, since 
that's a standard that never really took off.) No wrap netiquette 
applies to formatted text blocks which are unreadable if wrapped (such 
as bonnie or EXPLAIN output).
