Please bottom-post.

If you suspect further filetype settings are interfering, it's easy enough to 
figure out where it's being set:

  :verbose set filetype?

This should tell you what the current filetype is and in which script it was 
set.

Vim by default includes this to detect the "text" filetype:

  au BufNewFile,BufRead *.txt,*.text            setf text

What file extension is your text file? Do you have any filetype detection rules 
to make Vim detect it as such?
