here I see a <U201C> LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK, character code 0xB4 in
iso-8859-13. The character set in the message was iso-8859-1, where
0xB4 stands for <U00B4> ACUTE ACCENT (AFAIU it should look more-or-less
like an apostrophe '). The question is: why mutt fails to translate
this character from iso-8859-1 to iso-8859-13? Actually, there is no
such character in iso-8859-13, but why I do not see a question mark? I
haven't noticed such problems with other characters (I sent myself a
full iso-8859-1 table). The opposite is also true: if I send myself
mail in iso-8859-13 and set charset to iso-8859-1, I do not get a
question mark either instead of 0xB4 (<U201C> is not available in iso-1).
I have mutt-1.0pre2i and my /usr/local/share/mutt/charmaps seem to be
OK.
