If you happen to use edit_headers, you *might* want something like this

That PR shows as being merged several years ago. I'd supplied a similar
patch for the original mutt as well, but had that rejected. After that I
handled it in my vim by adding the following to
~/.vim/ftplugin/mail.vim:
setlocal formatoptions+=rawn2
autocmd CursorMoved,CursorMovedI <buffer> call autoformat#mail()
The function called there is defined in
https://github.com/aschrab/dotfiles/blob/master/vim/autoload/autoformat.vim
It takes care of removing the `a` and `w` options from `formatoptions`
while in the header area.
Looks like I've been using that for ~13 years now, and I don't recall
having any issues with it.
