     Thanks Miek, Google groups gave me the original raw header:

 | From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=D3lafur?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_Gu=F0mundsson?= /DNSEXT
 chair <em@il>

     This is the expected correct encoding, and is displayed perfectly in
 index as in pager. There are 2 possible explanations for your symptom:

  -1) You have no locale, ie. no LANG nor LC_* variable in environment.
 Solution: Export a locale appropriate for your language, country, and
 character set (perhaps "export LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8"), and check it works
 with the "locale" and "locale charmap" commands.

  -2) Your cache is corrupted. Solution: delete the cache files, and
 restart Mutt.


 Bye!    Alain.
