I just tested it on my system with the following setup: $ cat tmp.vim source /etc/vim/vimrc filetype plugin indent on $ touch reportbug.foo $ vim -u tmp.vim -N reportbug.foo :echo &tw 'textwidth' is properly set to 72, so it looks like something else is changing your 'textwidth' setting or you do not have filetype plugins enabled. Make sure ":filetype" reports at least "filetype detection:ON plugin:ON". Also verify that /usr/share/vim/vim71/ftplugin/mail.vim shows up in the output of ":scriptnames" and you can see what last set 'textwidth' by running ":verbose set tw?". Hope this helps narrow down the issue. -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
