"fold" is the term used by RFC 2822 and it was used by me this way:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822#section-2.2.3

You are talking about the display of headers. I'm talking about distribution 
of long header fields over multiple lines for message transport. The format 
used for message transport is irrelevant for displaying.

As far as I'm concerned, KMail's behavior with respect to the display of 
headers is fine. At least, I never found anything lacking. Your mileage may 
vary.
