Good suggestion.
I found a posting in this Chinese page about Vim Chinese support:
http://www.linuxsir.org/bbs/showthread.php?t=142149&page=1&pp=15&highlight=vim
After tried the suggested vimrc settings, the mal-formed messages can be
rendered correctly. The only drawback is that I got to press 'e' to view it.
Setting vim as pager does not appear to be a wise move for me. I am wondering
whether there are other pagers which can be used for this task. But this is
for body only.
Really appreciate this list and your help. Happy mutting!
