Grml, thouse were supposed to be footnotes. Don't know, why mutt mangled
this mail back to latin1, it was supposed to be in an utf8 encoding.
Same thing happened to me on this list, a couple of days ago.
I've only seen this happen on this list, which happens to also be a
google group.
What makes you think mutt is the culprit?

Well, the other time too, mutt was somehow involved; this could be a
coincidence however, with the real culprit being for instance (let's
venture a guess) some mail router along the line with out-of-date
non-8bitMIME-capable software. I know my own ISP's routers handle
8bitMIME correctly, or at least acceptably, because I've received time
and again in the past UTF-8 mail (which contained more than only 7-bit
ASCII characters) in 8bit Content-Transfer-Encoding, and it displayed
beautifully; or some rare times, I received it in quoted-printable with
headers saying it had been converted from 8bit to quoted-printable along
the way, and the conversion was correct; however I've been told that the
non-8bit-capable mail routers which once were the majority on the Web
haven't yet been all upgraded or decommissionned.
This mail is in UTF-8, BTW, and I'm composing it using Mozilla
SeaMonkey. The French language uses the following accented or otherwise
non-ASCII characters: âà Çç éêèë îï ô œŒ ûù ŷÿ where I'm grouping them
by collation equivalents. Also Euro € and paragraph §. (As you can see,
French uses the diaeresis on exactly those vowels which can never have
an umlaut -the same diacritic with a different function- in German. ;-) )
Best regards,
Tony.
