I feel like mutt should do some kind of sanity checking on the content when configured to generate format=flowed text. I know mutt's philosophy is that the mailer shouldn't mangle anything generated by the editor, but as I understand it, ultimately, vim is not in a position to ensure that the message is standards compliant before saving. w
