In cusine, il va sans dire. In character sets, not so much. With the advent of

that every OS tagged character files with the code page and did the 
translations.

Third time's the charm.  Making both the mail body and all attachments
"charset=utf-8" got a clean display on the web site.  Homogeneous.

Mutt is a glorious PITA!
