I am using both mutt and emacs to write mail.

I use, until recent time, this code into my .emacs :

; corrector
(add-hook 'mail-mode-hook 'flyspell-mode)

; Do not cut words
(global-visual-line-mode t)

; open mail-mode when emacs is invoked by mutt                                
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("/mutt" . mail-mode))

; wrap email body
(add-hook 'mail-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
(add-hook 'mail-mode-hook 'turn-on-filladapt-mode)

But it is not working anymore. When I write a email with emacs I have no flyspell enable and the mail-mode does not wrap the text.

When I try to launch the mail-mode manually, I have a error : 

File mode specification error: (void-function turn-on-filladapt-mode)
Making completion list... [2 times]
run-hooks: Symbol's function definition is void: turn-on-filladapt-mode

  • Was this code working recently? It seems like you have not filladapt available anymore. Did you upgrade anything of your system? Did you modify your .emacs? Is "emacs --debug-init" reporting any problem? – juanleon Oct 01 '13 at 10:09
  • yes I upgrade my system (new machine and new os (debian sid). This configuration used to work on debian stable on another machine. Maybe I have a package missing? But I couldn't say which one. – ppr Oct 01 '13 at 12:48

    You need to install filladapt, or remove the last line of your config. And you need to make sure that "emacs --debug-init" does not complain about anything in your setup. Also, you need to make sure that on the new system the "/mutt" substring is still valid for mail buffers. – juanleon Oct 01 '13 at 13:39
  • Thanks installing filladapt (package emacs-goodies.el) in debian fix the issue. – ppr Oct 06 '13 at 15:33

The problem was caused by the missing package emacs-goodies.el (in debian sid) which include filladapt.
