Hi Daniel, I see that you are using mutt. Are you using a UTF-8 locale and also get the thread indicators to show correctly? Or are you using a UTF-8 locale but have something like export LC_CTYPE="en_US" in your .bashrc I use mutt in the system console and can't seem to strike the right combination. If I generate a UTF-8 locale I need to set LC_CTYPE="en_NZ" which seems to defeat the purpose of generating UTF-8 in the first place. Also "dpkg-reconfigure" shows rubbish unless LC_CTYPE is set similarly for root. -- Chris. ====== -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
