Replying to myself, here is the trick I use:

(defadvice mew-fill-match-adaptive-prefix
   (after mew-remove-itemize-chars)
   "Remove the symbols commonly used as indicators for itemize lists  
from
the prefix used for filling messages."
   (message ad-return-value)
   (setq ad-return-value
	(replace-regexp-in-string "[-*]" " " ad-return-value)))

(add-hook 'mew-init-hook
  (function
   (lambda ()
     (ad-activate 'mew-fill-match-adaptive-prefix))))

Hope it may be pf help to somebody else...

Best,
