Another encoding question...



So... I have gotten a few messages (e.g. several from the Bugtraq 
mailing list) that don't seem to show up right (they have some accented 
characters), and make mutt choke when displaying them in the file index 
(blank blocks). I've tried other mailers (e.g. Apple Mail) which seem to 
be able to display the From bits "right" (I think).

An example (from Bugtraq) is in a tar'd Maildir here: 
http://www.memoryhole.net/~kyle/demomail.tar.bz2

I presume this can be fixed in mutt with something involving 
$assumed_charset, $charset, or something like that. Could someone take a 
look and tell me what works for them? (If it helps, I currently have the 
default $assumed_charset and $charset is set to "utf-8", to go with my 
uxterm.)

Thanks,
~Kyle
