I can see them now with patched iconv! What is _really_ fantastic is that
my editor (nvi-m17n by Junichiro Hagino) and mutt now have the same
capabilities, i.e., I see a circled one, "①", in both!!
Theoretically, I should be able to send them, too. (Fingers crossed.)

I decided to try "libiconv-1.10-ja-1.patch.gz" since it seemed to do even
more than the "-cp932" patch. Mr. Moriyama really understands our problem
here in Japan -- 99.99% of people use Windows or Mac to send mail and they
have no concept that someone cannot see what they see on their displays.
Anyway, his patch makes iconv as useful as nkf for Japanese users.

Yes! This is great news.

^^^^^^^^^
We don't have this command in NetBSD yet.

I have the following in .muttrc. So far 100% _solution_ (not "workaround").
set charset="euc-jp-ms"
charset-hook ^euc-jp$ euc-jp-ms

Hmmm. I don't know about sending mail encoded in euc. How about:
"...windows-1250:iso-2022-jp:iso-2022-jp-ms:utf-8"?

I see the (one) okay, but I'm not sure about the (TM). I see some super-
script kind of glyph, but I can't make out "TM".

I'll try to get that compiled ASAP.
Thanks, Alain. You have made this one of the happiest days in my
computing life.
