Long text messages, sending fails #6

Is the an option to trim automatically messages which exceed maximum length allowed by Telegram instead of fail? I guess the most common use case scenario for smtp_to_telegram is sending automated notifications from the server. Often, we aren't in control of message length. And IMHO it's better to trim message than discard it.

There's no such option at this moment. I never faced such a problem, but I think this is a good idea, so a PR would be welcome.

But I think instead of trimming the message it would be better to split it to multiple smaller ones.
