I don't see where you're specifying your $realname, which means that
mutt is pulling that value out of /etc/passwd (and probably not
detecting the charset correctly). Try:
set realname='Salve Håkedal'
You may also want to set $charset to the correct value for your config
file. (do that at the beginning of the muttrc)
>I can correct this with using:
>my_header From: "Salve Håkedal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>but this results in my sent-index giving _my_ name, and not the name of

Eh? Those should not be connected. What is your $index_format? The
default is that it shows the *author* of emails or the recipient if
the message is from you. However, it needs to be able to know how to
distinguish that a message is "from you". It does that by using your
$from, and whatever $alternates you have set. Add this to your muttrc:
set from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
That should get this working properly.
