When I open this file using vim 7.2.148 and execute ":set ft?", I
see "filetype=vim". I just opened $VIMRUNTIME/filetype.vim (version
2008 Dec 14) to check the rule that sets the 'filetype' to "mail"
and discovered this at lines 2363 and 2364:
" Mail (also matches muttrc.vim, so this is below the other checks)
au BufNewFile,BufRead mutt[[:alnum:]._-]\{6\} setf mail
So it appears that the problem has already been found and fixed.
