> I want to note that some email clients collapse strings of more than 1 spaces to just 1 space, so if the expression (add-text-properties 72 73 '(line-prefix "    ")) seems to have a string with 1 space, try getting your client to show you the unformatted source of the email.

My email client is Emacs, so no such problems there ;-)
