$charset is "utf-8" but not set in my .muttrc
$send_charset is .muttrc as "us-ascii:iso-8859-1:iso-8859-15:utf-8"
FWIW I am using debian's 1.5.23 package.
After further tests I noticed that when I reply only to the inline text part:
I 1 <no description> [text/plain, 8bit, utf-8,
0.1K]
A 2 plan_IT_2014.pdf [applica/pdf, base64, 206K]
by tagging it and typing ;r then all is well.
Hmmmm...

Ahhh, now I get it (sorta): replying to the whole message includes in
the quoted text the output of "pdftotext -enc Latin1 plan_IT_2014.pdf"
(as per my ~/.mailcap).
When I remove "-enc Latin1" all is well.
So mutt/vim are confused because the ouput is mixed latin1/uft8, right?
Thanks guys for your help and ideas,
