Hi Ken,
Thanks for the advice. But it's not the issue.

without wrapping, id est, lines not needing any wrapping (in this case):

(after narrowing the terminal in which Mutt is open)

set markers=yes (the default, so without the need to set it in the
.muttrc)

+$EDITOR to

set markers=no (in .muttrc)

$EDITOR to

(see the lack of the '+' in the last paste?)

And it appears to be non-related to
possibly-non-upstream-compatible patches in Gentoo. I saved a
test-link-display.eml file with such long link, and it was
equally, apparently, unsendable in, on another systemo of mine
with:

$ mutt -v
Mutt 1.5.23+102 (2ca89bed6448) (2014-03-12)

I'm saying apparently, because it maybe sends well and opens well
in other some mail clients, but not in Mutt.

A simple other issue, non-related. How do you same an email into a
file without Mutt creating a maildir for that file? The only way I
was able to do is touch a file beforehand and then append the
email to that (previously empty) file.

I mean, I touched:

$ touch test-link-display.eml

and then I used C to copy the file with a long link into it, and
it appended to it, and it was one file, and not a maildir
containing, for just one file:

$ ls -lR test-link-display/
sthu.deus/:
total 12
drwx------ 2 miro miro 4096 2015-07-20 10:45 cur
drwx------ 2 miro miro 4096 2015-07-20 10:45 new
drwx------ 2 miro miro 4096 2015-07-20 10:45 tmp

sthu.deus/cur:
total 8
-rw------- 1 miro miro 5092 2015-07-17 06:30
1437381929.9885_1.g0n:2,S

sthu.deus/new:
total 0

sthu.deus/tmp:
total 0
$

that whole structure. Better just:
$ ls -l test-link-display.eml
-rw-r--r-- 1 miro miro 6002 2015-07-20 10:16 test-link-display.eml
$

This ought to be a simple question if any of you Mutt wizzards are
reading this, so I didn't make another topic on it.

The main little worry of mine is the non-displaying, and
non-opening links when sent, if they are of, looks like over 70
chars, or similar.

Regards.
