I'm not at my Linux box now, but I believe mutt must
have a config file somewhere. I've never heard of
a non-existent ~/.muttrc, but I suppose it's possible.
If you've verified that nothing exists in ~, then check
for a master mutt config file in /etc, and see if
something there is declaring jove as the default editor.
Just a guess, hth, George
