Velko, I also have /usr/share/i18n/charmaps/CP1251.gz. However, when I use your hooks, I still get the =?us-ascii ... I'm using Debian 3.0, by the way.
Do you know where I can read more about charsets? This is one of those things where I can't tell if the system is misbehaving or if it's mutt. For example, how does mutt know what directory the charsets are in? If I knew this and a way to test to see if the system is finding the right charsets, I'd know whether the problem is with my mutt config or outside of mutt. Also, how did you figure out the real name of the charsets? There's no way I would have guessed that US-ASCII was really CP1251. Thanks!
