Since AutoFillMode doesn't fill the paragraph anew when deleting text,
`refill-mode' is more appropriate.

,----[ C-h f refill-mode RET ] 
| refill-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `refill.el'.
| (refill-mode &optional ARG)
| 
| Toggle Refill minor mode.
| With prefix arg, turn Refill mode on iff arg is positive.
| 
| When Refill mode is on, the current paragraph will be formatted when
| changes are made within it.  Self-inserting characters only cause
| refilling if they would cause auto-filling.
