A good place for generic informations is Sven's site I gave you in
an infosig lately. But I don't know if there are specific tools and
files for Gentoo, like for Debian. Gentoo docs?
"export LANG=en_US" in ~/.bash_profile or another startup script of
the shell from which you start Mutt might be a generic beginning.

The Colonel K. provided me copy of an electronic communication where
you admited using Gentoo, in July. And recent satellite photo confirmed.
BTW their psycho profilers seem to suggest that your "alternates" and/or
$metoo settings might be broken.

$charset will now automatically take the charset of the current
locale. If you are on an UTF-8 terminal, export LANG=en_US.UTF-8, and
verify that typing ":set ?charset" in Mutt shows charset="utf-8".
Bye! Alain.
