You probably want this so that you can have different settings for
writing mail messages than when you edit other files. If you use vim,
you can add a section to your .vimrc like this :
augroup Mail
au!
au FileType mail set tw=70 fo=tcrq
au FileType mail set comments+=n:\|
augroup END
Vim knows how to detect when it is wrting a mail message and set's the
filetype to 'mail'. Then it runs any autocommands associated with the
filetype which in my case adjusts the text width, formatting options
and adds my quote leader to the comments field (so it is colored
properly).
