Well, "For the experts" is the common way of telling experts not to
bother - a pathetic attempt at making people interested in something
that isn't interesting by its nature. In this case however the Subject
line potentially made people interested _despite_ the attempt.
In addition to various techniques of suggesting line breaks inside a
string, there's the approach of using spaces, which would indeed be the
logical and orthographically correct approach. If saving space is a
matter of life and death (though it's usually just a problem created on
purpose, by using some fancy "layout" and "design" that squeezes
content proper into stamp size), then you could use CSS to suggest
reduction of inter-word spacing, e.g.
<span style="word-spacing:-0.2em">252, 282, 5/6/7100, 8200,
8800 AC</span>
