For accents put
	(set-language-environment "Latin-1")

in .emacs.

To wrap text mode lines at 72, try
	(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
in .emacs.

Try getting post.el for some email editing additions to emacs.

If you want to run emacs as a client for mail-mode (rather than
loading an additional emacs to write messages), start the emacs
server in .emacs with
	(server-start)
and set mutt's editor as "emacsclient".

Note that if you don't already have an emacs running, mutt will
hang with a "waiting for emacs" message.

Cheers
