I'm using just
set editor="~/bin/vim"
in my .muttrc and I use autocmds in my .vimrc to recognize
replies with quoted text or no quoted text, new
messages and postponed messages. These make use of some of Sven
Guckes macros for deleting quote signs (> ) from empty lines etc.
I'm also working with set insertmode, so I don't have to type i
to input text.

One gripe I had was the way mutt adds an empty line when
set nosig_dashes
or is it the other way round? This messes up some of these
autocmds.
Incidentally the manual says:
It is strongly recommended that you not unset this variable (ie
set nosig_dashes) unless your ``signature'' contains just your
name.
Shouldn't this 'unless' be 'if.'
