>From my muttrc (which comes from debian): # Name: send_charset # Type: string # Default: "us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf-8" # # # A list of character sets for outgoing messages. Mutt will use the # first character set into which the text can be converted exactly. # If your ``$charset'' is not iso-8859-1 and recipients may not # understand UTF-8, it is advisable to include in the list an # appropriate widely used standard character set (such as # iso-8859-2, koi8-r or iso-2022-jp) either instead of or after # "iso-8859-1".
