I tried it and it didn`t work. As I don't understand it I can't say why. (I'm using v20.2.2) The second point is that I don't want emacs to always use auto-fill-mode but only if it is invoked by mutt. But I noticed that the auto-fill-mode breaks always at 70 chars. Even if I try to override the value. Strange thing. > If you plan on using emacs a lot, I would install dotfile-emacs... It > is a good starting point to customizing emacs. Hope this helps! I'll try out it, but I think I will have to read the docs if I really want to understand Emacs (and I do). Is there somewhere some kind of 'Getting started with Emacs'-guide on the net?
