Also as the patch was in debian mutt package long time ago. I still have no idea why it was dropped from the package. No one gave me a reason. > the bug was also tagged as wontfix. :-( That means that I have to always rebuild the mutt package when a new package comes out.

Upstream is a bit problematic. Upstream is such a utf-8 follower that he not see any reason to do something for non-utf-8 charsets without having the pressure of many people. That is mad. But I tried to discuss with him once and decided that I will put him on a list with such people than Schilly or Hans Reiser. You can bring any reasonable argument but he is not willing to see them. > I know that this is an inconvenience for you but I don't believe that > keeping an un-actionable bug open can relieve your problems with this > particular issue. Thanks for the honest answer. What I am searching for is any reasonable reason _why_ this patch was dropped from debian package and _why_ not to put it back again. There are so many patches in debian mutt that might have no change to get included in upstream. So why not this particular patch? More over as it fix a buggy behaviour.
