As per Andrei's suggestion, you can explicitly set this in your .muttrc as follows, which is what I do. set editor="vim +':set textwidth=72'" I suspect the following will work aswell if you want to also keep the wrapmargin setting. set editor="vim +':set textwidth=72' +':set wrapmargin=5'" Regards, Jaime -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
