Maybe it's interesting that this can be found in

I can write emails fine with vi (vim) as the editor, receive them e.g.
using thunderbird on the receiver side.
Headers seem to be fine.
But when I view an email locally with the builtin mutt pager, umlauts
are still displayed as \303\266 for example
for an oumlaut (ö) and \303\237 for an szlig (ß).
When using an external pager like (set pager=less) the same characters
are displayed as
<C3><B6> and <C3><9F> respectively. Using set pager = more I'm getting
a #-sign inserted in every umlaut place.
So I thought using the builtin pager would be at least the most
consistent, if I only could make that pager
display the umlauts as what they are and not escape them.
