Package: alpine
Version: 1.0+dfsg-3
Severity: minor
Hi,
I'm using a script to send me some e-mails that are probably
sloppy in specifying the encoding of the content. The content
is encoded in the system default encoding ISO-8859-15 as well
as the terminal which runs alpine. Alpine says:

[ The following text is in the "X-UNKNOWN" character set. ]
[ Your display is set for the "ISO-8859-15" character set. ]
[ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]
...
<Content with non-ASCII characters replaced by '?'>
-------------------------------------------------------------
IMHO it would be reasonable if alpine would use the default
character set for the display instead of replacing non-ASCII
characters by '?'.
I could foreward a mailbox file which shows the problem if
needed.
Kind regards and thanks for maintaining the finally _free_
version of my favourite MUA
Andreas.
