I should have said this first, but if I switch the console encoding to utf8, then the message is properly displayed. So, the utf8 'realm' works ok. Hence, mutt is transforming an iso8859-1 message into a (correct) utf8 one, despite the fact that my xterm is iso8859-1, and despite the value of charset variable. Other programs like VIM work fine. > Some terminals silently switch to ISO-8859-1 if you print something that > isn't valid UTF-8, requiring you to restart them to get back to UTF-8. > That, combined with a signature, motd, etc. in ISO-8859-1 can be very > confusing.

How do you change a xterm encoding through a command line? osso-xterm does not need to be restarted to change it... > BTW, where did you get a maemo bin of mutt? http://www.courville.org/mediawiki/index.php/N810 Thanks!!!!
