My muttrc has: ----- set allow_8bit set send_charset="US-ASCII:ISO-8859-1:ISO-8859-7:UTF-8" set charset="iso-8859-7" set locale="el_GR" ----- and everything works ok. -- =================================================== Kostas Blekos http://a.physics.upatras.gr/~mplekos/ ===================================================
