You don't. You wrap text within the editor Mutt calls to write e-mail
in. In my case, this is vim, so I have:

set editor='vim -c "set tw=72" -c "set wrap" -c "set ts=4"'

.. telling vim to wrap at 72 chars automagically, and to set four spaces
to a tab stop. (which I think helps with a 72 char limit, and which you
can argue with me about if you're immensely bored ;-)

Hope this helps,

~C.
