Hi Sander, thanks a lot for your feedback:
OK I changed my /etc/default/locale etc. and now my locals: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NAME=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_ADDRESS=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_ALL= And if I enter 'locale charmap' it shows: UTF-8. But...mutt shows the ��� wrong, not just in any mails. also in the mutt menue, for example: d:L�sch. -> d:lM-CM6sch. thanks...andy > [ Sander Smeenk <ssm+m...@freshdot.net> - 02.01.2013 10:33:57 ]: > > > Quoting Andrea Hanke (andreas.ha...@r-kom.de): > > > > > I am working with Ubuntu and my local settings are there: > > > LANG=de_DE.utf8 > > > > The correct way to write it is "de_DE.UTF-8". > > This might well be the source of your troubles. > > > > > LC_CTYPE="de_DE.utf8" > > > LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8 > > > > ^^ See it mixed here? > > > > > Also I have a charset configuration in my .muttrc: > > > set charset="utf-8" > > > > You shouldn't "force" charcsets through .muttrc.
