Re: line wrap with editors
I use nano which I think is the default editor in Ubuntu. I have this in my .muttrc file: set wrap=78 set smart_wrap set editor="nano -r 75" and it seems to work well.

The editor parameters is chosen by you, not by or controled by mutt, but ... you can pass parameters to your editor via muttrc. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.orgopenSUSE Community Memberfacebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.orgPhoto Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535@ http://linuxcounter.net
