That's it! Thanks. I set "editor" to "emacsclient" in ~/.muttrc and
changed ~/.emacs to ``(server-start nil)'' and it works :) I had to
remove ``(load-library "gnuserver")'' though as it just caused
errors (even when changed to "start-server" or "emacsserver"), but works without it.
Thanks again for the help.
