Probably you need to escape some of the "\"; you'd have to try.

I prefer to have this (and more) in a function MailStart in
~/.vim/after/ftplugin/mail.vim, and then simply have

set editor='vim -X -c "call MailStart()"'

in my muttrc -- much easier to tweak or turn off in hooks as
well. Saves me to try hundreds of escape combinations in muttrc.
So I am also too lazy to do it for you ;-)

btw. you don't need tw=72. That's already on by default for
ft=mail.
