There was a discussion, with causes and partial cures, of that just a
month ago, in this thread:

Aha, thanks, that provides me with all I could wish to know! :-)
Regarding the decision to display html vs plain text, hopefully so.

Well, we can but guess, since the HTML alternative is missing from your
example.
I seem to have got entangled by my own problem! When I look at the
forwarded message (as it arrived from the mutt list) it doesn't have
HTML but it *does* have all those 'A A ' sequences still. Can
anyone suggest their cause?
I would say that whatever is transcribing your HTML to text is generating these
characters. On your first post I was guessing a display only problem involving
a terminal configuration, but if it is getting into forwarded messages then it
should be the transcription process.
When you forward a message (_not_ <resend>), mutt tends to put in its test
transcription, thus your "A" markers.
Can you show us your display_filter settings?
