OK, I had recently added a line in my .vimrc (set paste) for pasting
external contents into vim while maintaining formatting. It worked
great, but was hosing up the aforementioned pieces as editor for mutt.
Commenting out that line returned expected behavior.

So for pasting things into vim from now on, should I just invoke 'set
paste' before pasting and leave the entry out of my .vimrc?

Thanks.
