Are you running Mutt on the console? In an xterm? What font do you
have loaded? What font string is the xterm using?
My xterm is using this font:
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
As you can see, it is an iso8859-1 font, which is why I can see the
western-european characters. I would need to run in an xterm with a
different font, to see Cyrillic characters.
