Hello mutt-users,

mutt is
2.2.7 (2022-08-07) with ncurses on freebsd current

vim is
VIM - Vi IMproved 9.0 (2022 Jun 28, compiled Aug  4 2022 02:42:28)
Included patches: 1-129
Compiled by root@main-arm64-default-job-11
Huge version without GUI.

I'm trying to get things so that emails composed and replied to in mutt do not have to be manually edited with hard returns each time.

What I want is, if i'm typing in a line and it goes over 72 chars, to newline at that point intelligently.
I've tried variations of
set editor="vim +':set textwidth=68' +':set wrapmargin=0' +':set wrap'"
and
set editor="vim +':set textwidth=0' +':set wrapmargin=0' +':set wrap'"
and
set editor="vim +':set textwidth=72' +':set wrapmargin=5'"

and in .vimrc
set textwidth=72

to no effect.

I don't know if this is a mutt issue or a vim issue or both/none. Where should I be looking?

TIA
