Both Mutt versions auto-detect the charset of the current locale,
since MacOS 10.3 Panther. So Richard should *not* set $charset in
muttrc.

This build option (./configure --enable-locales-fix) is an ugly hack
to workaround FUBAR broken systems. It is both useless since at least
MacOS 10.2 Jaguar, and unfriendly to UTF-8. You should drop it (even if
it is possibly not linked to your problem), and perhaps inform the
packager (Fink?).
Bye! Alain.
