Utter nonsense.   Mutt displays it terribly.  Since I too use Vim, and
have tw=74, I have never had a problem as this is what the rest of
planet tend to also wrap their lines to.   If you think a paragraph is
ever a single line because you believe the person viewing it has a
viewer capable of somehow wrapping those lines his/herself, you're
wrong.
