Here is what I use in my ~/.muttrc. Yes, I know some of these options (in particular 'charset') may be the "wrong" options to use, but it works... # This character set is used on outgoing mail when it contains non-ascii # characters. set charset="iso-8859-8-i" # use external pager, and don't prompt after it! set noprompt_after set pager="bidi_pager" Where bidi_pager is the following small script: #!/bin/sh # I use this as mutt's pager exec bidiv "$@" | less -c (see http://ftp.ivrix.org.il/pub/ivrix/src/cmdline/ for bidiv - or if you use Debian, just fetch the "bidiv" package). This setup will send Hebrew mail as iso-8859-8-i, and will be able to read Hebrew mail in either iso-8859-8-i (or the equivalent Windows encoding) or UTF8. To actually *edit* Hebrew mail, you'll need to set up your editor accordingly; I use vim, with macros to switch direction and language - something like export VIMINIT='map! ESC[24~ ESC:set invhk invrl^Ma map ESC[24~ :set invhk invrl' (replace ESC by the actual ESCAPE character). -- Nadav Har'El | Sunday, Feb 16 2003, 14 Adar I 5763 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |"A mathematician is a device for turning http://nadav.harel.org.il |coffee into theorems" -- P.
