I am sorry. I use mailing lists to post to my own forums--I use fudforum
primarily as a frontend for the mailing lists, and if I use hard newlines for
other mailing lists, I will have to have separate vim configurations for
different mailboxes, which would be a real pain to maintain. The better option
for me would be to just stop posting to technical mailing lists.

That would be really appreciated. And I have a lot of other requests too. But
this will be a great start. I was using emacs-w3m, which I could actually
rewrite using elisp. So I had done a lot of crazy things. But emacs-w3m is damn
slow, and it has actually started becoming unproductive, despite the ability to
write your own browser.
Thanks.

Subjective. You're the first person I have heard of that thinks this.

No, but then I find pressing 'g' twice is not too difficult. :) I'll
look at patching the scripting hooks to allow for this -- it is kind of
possible to do, since we already have the 'E' and 'G' bindings, for
instance.

A lot of people use OutLook Express, and I mostly move around in this crowd,
and their mails are all single line paragraphed. Anyway, you can set
wrapmargin= in your muttrc, and mutt will wrap them
properly. I really don't like the way 75 char limited paragraphs are displayed
in forums or even in mails. It somehow doesn't look professional.

Ok, then can I map a key so that the 'Go to Url' dialog will pop with a 'g '
already typed in? 'g ' in the url box is the short for doing
google search. I need a mapping like:
bind_key('main', 'S', go_to_url_box('g '));
Is that possible?
Thanks.
