In the messages window if show headers is turned on and a very long header is present it will expand the container causing it to over flow.

It appears this is a regression from https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D200458 which made the list unsubscribe a link and attempted to make it over flow with ellipsis it looks like every other header did and still does wrap though.

Do we want to make this wrap like it did before and the rest of the headers or should it truncate to an ellipsis?

We should make it wrap because the list management link should be visible in its entirety to allow users to read it and ensure it's legit.
Good finding and thanks for the bug report.

[Approval Request Comment]
Regression caused by (bug #): bug 29041
User impact if declined: when a list management link is visible in the message header, it doesn't properly wrap and breaks the header layout.
Testing completed (on c-c, etc.): on c-c
Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): very low, simple CSS fix
