Auto-filling in org-mode without affecting the headlines

Auto-filling in org-mode without affecting the headlines

[Narendra Joshi]

Hi,

I would like to have auto-fill enabled in org-mode but would like to
prevent headings from being auto-filled. Is something available in
org-mode that would allow me to do this?

Thanks,

Auto-fill doesn't fill headlines. Something may be wrong in your
configuration.

I have used auto-fill-mode in Org buffers for quite a while now 
without any problems, and a quick test on my end shows that long 
headings don't get auto-filled.  Are you having problems with 
this?  If so, what version of Org and Emacs are you using?   --

I tried with emacs -Q and was able to reproduce the problem.

```
(~) λ emacs-version
GNU Emacs 26.0.50 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
 of 2017-08-07
(~) λ org-version
9.0.9
(~) λ
```
