Funny: It seems the <"." on Solaris redirected the raw current
directory to Mutt input. A raw directory is binary data interspesrsed
with text, giving the strange attachment, the failed charset detection,
and the unknown charset error.
The same redirection on Linux fails on a read error, giving an empty
main text part.

Replace the dot by /dev/null.
