I am sorry, I did not noticed that auctex had an auto-fill option, so
I could not get your point. My fault.
I have tried what you suggest, but I cannot set a different line
length for the normal text and the verbatim text. And, as you say, the
text is indented, and the indentation appears on the final document.

OK, I will have a look at it.
Sorry if my questions looked dumb & thanks for your answer.
