Nope. On my system this tells emacs to edit a file named (something like)
"textwidth=70". Look at your list of buffers when you use this command string.

There's always more than one way to skin any unix cat; here's mine, based on
the fact that the default fill-column in emacs is 70. Force emacs into text
mode, and tell it to always use automatic fill in any text mode. Do all this
neat stuff by putting these lines in your ~/.emacs:
(setq default-major-mode 'text-mode)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook
'(lambda () (auto-fill-mode 1)))
Now, in .muttrc just say:
editor="emacs"
Works here....
