Pressing 'e' to open vim on the email allows me to avoid iconf, I guess, and the character encoding supported by the system, big5 in my case, is displayed with a Chinese character font. In mutt, only the header is readable, I guess because the header was supposed to be left free of MIME-requiring encodings. So, yes, vim does. -- Greg Matheson, Taiwan -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
