I had a try what you had suggested but it confused my .xsession settings. Actually I'm very bad in "X" too and cannot quite follow what you intended. Why should mutt's behaviour change when putting your line into .Xresources? Mutt has it's own key functions (I hoped not all had been documented). Maybe you took "editor" for the editor being used when composing the message body. Yet mutt documents "editor" as what emacs user would name a mini- buffer, the bottom line where you key the email address, the subject etc in.
