I know that I can set line wrapping at a particular line length or a value
less that the display line length, but both of these disreguard quote
indicators and make viewing/reading quotes very sloppy. Is there a method
to intelligently wrap quoted material?

If there's a single quotemark at the start of a long line and you wrap it, the

I use vim also. Mine will do the word wrap, as you describe, but
the adding of new quote marks... how do you accomplish that
As a variation on the vim invocation, I use this:
set editor ="vim +/^$
This puts me at the first blank line of the composition screen.

I'm not sure how I missed this in the Mutt manual and some online tutorials,
but I have some people on another mail list complaining that my email isn't
wrapping properly. I am using vim as my editor. Which needs to be configured
to setup wrapping at 72? Is it in one of the vim files or the .mu

I realize this is drifting from the original question, but setting
textwidth=77 in vim will activate word-wrapping as you compose the
message (wraps at 77 chars in this case). This feature is useful if
you compose in a wide terminal, or if you're tired of hitting
at the end of each line...

Try this:
set editor="vim -c 'set tw=72 comments=nb:>'"

Ahem, this bloody damned web interface, I'm using right

Some of my correspondents use a mail composition system that does not
break long lines into screen-width lines. I dare not complain for they
will then send me HTML or Word versions. The mutt viewer handles the
long lines nicely, breaking at word boundaries and putting in cyan plus
signs to show
