Thank you, Boris.

But that's weird for your case. If you have attachment, your header
should have only 'Content-Type: multipart/...' instead of 'text/plain'
or 'text/html'.

For my cases, they have the latter content-type and no attachment. They
send me inline 8-bit muitibyte (big5) text. Mutt will depend on the
charset specified in Content-Type: filed.

charset-hook:

This doesn't look matching my problem. If a message speicifies a strange
charset, it can map it. But for my case, messages miss 'charset=big5'
and mutt thinks to use some DEFAULT that I don't know where it comes from.

My locale is LANG=zh_TW.big5. And my mutt has 'set charset=big5'. I
don't know what is missing.

best,
charlie
