Hello to everybody: I'm still learning Mutt (this is my first installation), and I've worked out encoding issues and the likes, particullarly when somebody sends me a gettext po file, enabling me to *see* it with the regular pager. Although it sometimes detects
However, now, when I try to *attach* such a file to send it to whatever developers, I get "application/x-gettext, base-quoted", and Mutt doesn't autoshow the contents (says it can't), unless I view it in the attachment menu. My locale is en_US.utf8. I have in my .mime.types application/x-gettext po text/x-gettext-translation po as Mutt was detecting the same po format under different names, randomly (as far as I know). Some po files are in iso-5..-15, most in utf8. However, I need mutt to guess correctly the encoding of the file, as I may end up sending some garbled file to the translation lists. When Mutt detects iso...-1 in a received, I get garbled accents in Spanish, therefore, I had to put charset-hook iso-8859-1 iso-8859-15 in .muttrc. I also have set file_charset="utf-8:iso-8859-15:us-ascii" set send_charset="utf-8:iso-8859-15:us-ascii" set assumed_charset="utf-8" set locale="en_US.utf8 in my .muttrc. May this force a conversion on sent attachments? In case you don't know, a po file is plain text file with some string headers. However, they need to be recognized by their mimetype as po to ensure a correct send. I saw a mail discussing the topic, but it doesn't work for sending po's, yet detects mimetype and encoding of received emails. (Although it sometimes says base64. Let me know if I can provide more information. Thanks in advance! Omar -- "Why stop now just when I'm hating it?" -- Marvin The Paranoid Android
