Don't take me too seriously: I see you're using mutt, which means maybe
you're wedded to it ;-).
Anyway, I suppose you still would occasionaly want the possibility to
reply to the sender of a newsgroup post privately rather than on the
newsgroup.
One possibility would be to use some other mail/news client, one where
you'd get explicit menus saying, for instance, "Reply to Sender", "Reply
to Newsgroup", "Reply to All", etc. Maybe there are still other options.

To avoid all wrapping, you could ":set tw=0" but that would probably
also disable wrapping the body text of the mail or newspost.
If you want to limit the length of mail/newspost headers, continuation
lines should start with whitespace -- look at the "raw source" of any
mail you get, you'll probably see "Received" lines with that kind of
"indented" continuation lines.
Best regards,
Tony.
