mutt and linebreaks

Hi all,

I have a very random, and relatively unimportant question about mutt
that I have thus far been unable to find the answer to. When reading
mail, if the sender's editor doesn't put in hard linebreaks (or simply
has line lengths longer than my terminal), it places a red + at the
beginning of the next line to signify that the line continues. I find
this incredibly annoying, as it doesn't really seem necessary (i.e.,
for email, I don't really care where a line ends and one begins). It's
mainly an issue with URLs, since the + gets copied and I have to
manually delete it.

So, my question is this: Is there a variable that I can use to have
mutt not display the + at linebreaks?

Thanks,

Mike
