Even better: Make sure to have a `:filetype plugin on` in your .vimrc and then drop all your mutt related settings below ~/.vim/ftplugin/mail.vim (create non-existent directories). Then you only need `:set editor=vim` because Vim already recognizes mutt mails as filetype=mail.

It can alternatively be handled by a vim autocommand, e.g.: au BufNewFile,BufRead ~/Desktop/mutt-* call Set_for_mutt() function! Set_for_mutt() setlocal textwidth=72 setlocal formatoptions=qrjt " Change subthread Subject: noremap ^[gg/^Subject:^MWi [Was: ^OB " "Don't quote sig in email replies: normal :g/^> -- $/,/^$/-1d^M/^$^M^L endfunction And for prompting for attachments if they're mentioned in the email, install CheckAttach.vim & enable it by filetype: " CheckAttach.vim is a filetype plugin. filetype plugin on Note: In ~/.muttrc , there's: set tmpdir="~/Desktop" # If not in ~/postponed after a crash, look here. The autocommand's second field needs to match. Separate .vimrc files slightly smaller, but raise the problem of maintaining multiple copies, when common lines are edited. When there's only one, the problem does not arise. Erik

There is better than that - you can use vim as the mutt editor, with this line in ~/.muttrc: set editor=vim On a *nix platform, it would be very poor to be unable to use your favourite editor everywhere.
