Re: Can one specify a character set 'on demand' for incoming mail?



Hi,

I frequently get E-Mail (from France in particular) which doesn't

there any way I can tell mutt to use a particular character set when
viewing an incoming mail 'on the fly' as it were, i.e. when I see the
mail has \xxx sequences in it?

You could give $assumed_charset a try if your mutt already has the feature.
