Changing default editor in mutt

[Edward L. Barnes]

I know it is Greb, also Alex, if you're just playing Mutt to learn more 
about I'd probably do it is a different user other than the one who has 
mail in their home dir already such that you don't do anything to make 
your messages inaccessible to you when you use Pine, however this is 
just my opinion. So, if it were me I'd probably do an useradd to be on 
the safe side and play as the new user until you're comfortable with 
Mutt and you have the .Muttrc customized to your liking, then I would 
copy the new users .Muttrc to the other users home dir as room and 
change permissions as needed.
Hth.
