For some reason although when I send emails containing certain umlauted characters everything looks fine, the recipient sometimes (or possibly always, I only know because one person mentioned it) doesn't see the characters correctly.
I have the following environment variables set LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" LC_CTYPE = "de_CH.UTF-8" (LANG is en because I want to have my messages in English. Must LC_CTYPE match?) and within mutt I can see that Mutt has the charset variable set to UTF-8 - ':set &charset ?charset' displays 'charset="utf-8"'. However if I send *myself* an email containing upper case an umlauted A, O, or U I see garbage in mutt where the character should be, however if I look at the email via webmail it looks fine. Similary if I send a friend an email continaing (apparently) any type of umlauted character (upper or lower case) they appear to be replaced by spaces. I notice that the Content-Type header contains text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1. Is that correct? In .muttrc send_charset is unset, so allegedly defaults to charset, but that doesn't seem to be the case here for some reason. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
