Here is what I use in my own .vm.preferences file

;; filling disabled - use visual-line-mode instead

(if running-fsf23
    (add-hook 'vm-presentation-mode-hook 'turn-on-visual-line-mode)
  (if (locate-library "longlines.el")
      (progn
        (setq vm-fill-paragraphs-containing-long-lines 0) ; use longlines.el
        (setq vm-word-wrap-paragraphs t))
    (setq vm-fill-paragraphs-containing-long-lines 'window-width)
    )
)

For Gnu Emacs 23, visual-line-mode is the best solution.  Otherwise
longlines.el.  If we don't have that, we use filling.

For outgoing mail, I just turn on auto-fill-mode in mail-mode, and that is
that. 

Cheers,
