Hi!
Since I upgraded to 1.3.20i I've got 2 problem with charsets.
The first one is that if the charset isn't specified in the Content-Type of
a mail, mutt seems to always use "us-ascii", although I've set the config
variable charset to iso-8859-1. Is that the "normal" behaviour now?
If so, what do I have to do to make it use iso-8859-1?
Ah, I just noticed: if I completely delete the Content-Type: line
the iso characters show up correctly again! But just:
Content-Type: text/plain
doesn't work. And many broken mailer send mails like that. :-(
The second one is a minor problem, but still a bit annoying:
Many of my mails come from a friend who has "K.d.Ö.R." in his real name.
So the From-Line is like this:
From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?K.d.=F6.R.?= <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Mutt doesn't decode this line in the index, so that I see:
1 Nov 12 =?iso-8859-1?Q?K. ( 9) subject
instead of
1 Nov 12 K.d.Ö.R. ( 9) subject
In the pager it's shown correctly though:
Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2001 20:43:52 -0500
From: K.d.ö.R. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: "Andy Spiegl" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: äöüß
User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.23i
Is there a fix for that?
BTW, I've set:
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-18.18F %?M?%5M*&(%4l)? %s"
set charset="iso-8859-1"
and:
export LANG=de_DE
export LANGUAGE=de_DE
export LC_ALL=de_DE
Thanks a lot for any hint!
Andy.
