Re: Problem with gettext files and Mutt.
I think you are overdoing it. I don't have a .mime.types file, nor any encoding settings in my .muttrc, I'm just using a terminal with proper UTF-8 support (rxvt-unicode). How are you testing the encodings of the files you send/receive? Thanks for the response. I'm using gnome-terminal. I started trying to do this thing because I was getting a lot of messages in plain us-ascii, and, I was getting mail in Spanish in iso..-1 badly rendered, therefore the charset-hoo for iso...-15, in order to see the accents. Now, Po files I send are always in utf-8, same as I receive. However, I was getting garbled iso...1 instead of the right thing when it came to receive it before. Then, mutt would also save the attachment with a garbled enconding. Now, with the fixes, when I send it, I get utf8 quoted, or plain/text with the right encoding but wrong mime, yet viewable (what po's are, just text). My problem is that the po is sometimes not viewable as app/gettext, quoted, attachement. This is available in /usr/share/doc/mutt. l10n support If you want to see non-ASCII characters on a Debian system, there's no use fiddling with the variable charset, as described in the manual page muttrc(5). Instead, you'll need to have the Debian package locales installed on your system and set the LANG or LC_CTYPE environment variable. e.g. US users will want to add export LC_CTYPE=en_US to their ~/.bashrc. That's way I tried everything. You say you just use that terminal and it works?

That and also make sure you use a font which supports the respective characters (like DejaVu).

Problem with gettext files and Mutt.
Hello to everybody: I'm still learning Mutt (this is my first installation), and I've worked out encoding issues and the likes, particullarly when somebody sends me a gettext po file, enabling me to *see* it with the regular pager. Although it sometimes detects utf-8 as iso. However, now, when I try to *attach* such a file to send it to whatever list, I get application/x-gettext, and Mutt doesn't autoshow the contents (says it can't), unless I view it in the attachment menu. Other times I get text/plain, and it shouldn't. My locale is en_US.utf8. I have in my .mime.types application/x-gettext po text/x-gettext-translation po Commenting the first and leaving the second works better, as Mutt was detecting the same po format under different names, randomly (as far as I know). Some po files are in iso-5..-15, most in utf8. However, I need mutt to guess correctly the encoding of the file, as I may end up sending some garbled file to the translation lists. When Mutt detects iso...-1 in a received, I get garbled accents in Spanish, therefore, which are visible with iso..-15. I had to put charset-hook iso-8859-1 iso-8859-15 in .muttrc to view those right. I also have set file_charset=utf-8:iso-8859-15:us-ascii set send_charset=utf-8:iso-8859-15:us-ascii set assumed_charset=utf-8 set locale=en_US.utf8 in my .muttrc. May this force a conversion on sent attachments? They need to be recognized by their mimetype as po to ensure a correct send, and also when I save it. The thing is, I either get plain/text utf8 on recieved, same with wrong encoding (fixed with the charset-hook), and applicattion/x-gettext, quoted, on sending. Let me know if I can provide more information. Thanks in advance!
