I now have (via a line in .bashrc ): purslow: ~> locale LANG= LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 There's no difference in the headers. It occurs to me that I'm running Mutt via 'konsole -e mutt', which is restarted automatically by KDE . I did restart X & thereby KDE & Konsole+Mutt , but just possibly that won't use .bashrc : any thoughts ? > If just setting the better locale doesn't help, > then also try with an empty .muttrc. That sounds rather extreme (smile): are there specific lines to comment out ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
