I suspect that this may not actually be a xemacs specific problem but a font scaling problem. Try setting your X server to :noscale the Japanese fonts. Another thing to try would be to set up a font in your Xresources file. > My last problem is with replying to email with xemacs.

It sounds like a character encoding problem that you are having. I don't know whether mutt-ja attempts to translate the character encoding before passing the buffer to the editor. You could try M-x set-file-coding-system and then one of (sjis, japanese-euc, iso-2022-jp), followed by M-x revert-buffer. Personally, I find it simpler to read and reply to Japanese email using gnus under xemacs-mule. By adding (load "mime-setup") to your .emacs, you can get gnus to use the correct character encoding for the message you are receiving from the charset MIME header. But then, I'm not a mutt fan.
