ARRGGH I would also like a solution to this problem - but I think it
is not with mutt (mutt + iconv + utf-8 is seriously good). As far as I
can tell, the various mac charsets given on apple's website and those
dealt with by iconv, bear no relation to the complete garbage
delivered by Microsoft Entourage. Not only does Entourage claim to to
be using iso-8859-1, which it isn't, but whatever charset it is using
is not handled by any of the charsets in iconv. I know - because I
tried every single one of them on a message to try and figure it
out...

I've also search the web to try and find what charset it uses - but
nothing comes up - it's really strange.
