I am using the same Mutt 1.3.27i (2002-01-22) with utf-8, and it has even problems 1.2.5 didn't have. For example, when the subject includes characters with 2-byte utf-8 representation, its length is not calculated correctly for representation in the index page, and it is truncated prematurely, but when you step over it with the cursor is highlight also the next line with the rest of the subject. Refreshing the index eliminates the phenomenon. I had no problems with viewing the subject in the message page, both in the title and in the headers. I am using an external pager, less, and mutt passes it the correct subject. But this was also ok in 1.2.5.
