Well, "" is a charset too, isn't it? charset "" kio8-r or the matching ISO-whatever does what you want. I use charset-hook "" iso-8859-1 for the very same reason. Mutt assumes us-ascii, if nothing is specified - according to the relevant RFCs, I presume. I often get mail with German umlauts from people with broken mailers and the above helps me reading those messages a lot. :) HTH, Michael -- Avoid the Gates of Hell.
