I tried three methods (^E and edit, hand edit charset-type before loading
into mutt, and charset-hook), but none of them worked!

1) ^E and hand edit:
Content-Type:  text/plain; charset=euc-jp      <<== Strange. It hasn't changed.

2) Hand edit mail header before loading:
Content-Type:  text/plain; charset=euc-jisx0213

?? 構造検索の強化

3) Put "charset-hook ^euc-jp$ euc-jisx0213" in .muttrc
Content-Type:  text/plain; charset=euc-jp

libiconv was configured with --enable-extra-encodings.  `iconv -l`
lists EUC-JISX0213.

Is utf-8 the only answer?
