+# Composing setup
+
+## Composing messages with vim 
+
+### neomutt configuration
+
+```
+set edit_headers = yes
+set editor="vim -c 'startinsert' '+/^$'"
+```
+
+The first line will allow you to edit the headers in during composing
+of messages in vim.
+The second line will call vim in insert mode and skip the header to
+start just after the header part.
+
+### vim configuration (.vimrc)
+
+```
+syntax on
+set complete+=kspell
+autocmd FileType mail set colorcolumn=76
+autocmd FileType mail set tw=75
+autocmd FileType mail set spell spelllang=de,en
+```
+
+The `kspell` value will support completion for spelling check. The
+`tw` and `colorcolumn` will set the text width to 75 and highlight the
+end of the text area.
