Well, here are the charset-related entries from my .muttrc (1.3.20i): set locale="C" # I prefer english UIs to the German translations... unset allow_8bit set charset="iso-8859-1 set send_charset="us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf8" I'm running mutt in a gnome-terminal using -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 and Umlauts are displayed without a problem. regards, Volker P.S.: Did you know that Emacs loves you..? <SCNR> - No flamefest intended ;-) -- The two oldest professions in the world have been ruined by amateurs. -- G.B.
