Huh? Well it's there in a default setup in my woody. I have no idea what's going on there.

Yep, that's what I meant by "or whatever" -- if you wanted something else other than en_US Just out of curiosity, do you have the file /usr/share/i18n/locales/en_US?

Just in ~/.bashrc? or somewhere special? Yeah I use bash, so I set my ~/.bashrc with the correct LC_* settings (you could set yours to en_US if that's what you wanted.) Set those in your ~/.bashrc, source your .bashrc (% . ~/.bashrc) then type in mutt and look at an email where you get the ? marks and see if it's "right." (open a shell and type in mutt manually to make sure it *is* working from there before you try it from a menu, key-binding, etc.) -- Brian Clark | Avoiding the general public since 1805!
