It doesn't.  Your editor does.  You need to tell nano how you want it to
wrap the lines in your file.  Presumably, there's some sort of ~/.nanorc
functionality, or you can use mutt's editor variable.  I use vim and my
.muttrc has:

set editor="vim +':source ~/.vim/mutt.vim' +':set textwidth=75' +':set wrap' 
+\`awk '/^$/ {print i+2; exit} {i++}' %s\` %s"

hth.
