from manual.txt : 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  6.3.263.  wrapmargin

  Type: number
  Default: 0

  Controls the size of the margin remaining at the right side of the
  terminal when mutt's pager does smart wrapping.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

well... 
WHY does  it wraps  from the _right_  margin, not  the _left_ one  ? I
think this a stupid behaviour !

When I want wrapping, For sure  I want wrapped lines to do $wrapmargin
chars _maximum_, not 'right spaces' to do exactly $wrapmargin chars...

Is there any suggestion ? 
Should I see another trick (like a viewer wrapper ?)


       thanks :)
