The org minor modes set the local value of fill-paragraph-function to
org-fill-paragraph. You can override this by adding a line to your hook
function:

    (defun turn-on-full-org-mailing ()
      (turn-on-orgstruct++)
      (turn-on-orgtbl)
      (load "org-html-mail")
      (setq fill-paragraph-function 'message-fill-paragraph))

I'm not sure how this will affect calling fill on lists or tables,
however.

A proper fix would probably add a test to org-fill-paragraph to see if
we are in message mode.

Best,
