I just have in my .muttrc 

set editor="emacs -nw"

and then I have a .emacs file with

;; Set the starting mode to text and enable fill
(set-variable 'default-major-mode 'text-mode)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)

so it always starts in text mode and wraps.

This works perfectly for me.
