This works nicely for text in the body, but if I need to make changes to the header when that has trailing spaces it results in a huge mess. For example if I make any changes to the Subject: header I end up with a line looking like:

Bcc: Subject: This is the subject

Because the default Bcc: line ends with a blank space, vim determines that the Subject: line is part of the same paragraph and reformats those lines so that they're together.

I think the better solution would be to teach Vim how to disable auto reformat when editing in the email header, because there are other cases where it will bite you. For example, it doesn't seem to properly insert whitespace at the start of the line when it wraps a header field.

Alternatively, define a toggle key which does +/-=a for manual intervention.
