hi all,

I'm a spanish mutt user. I use emacs as editor:

********
set editor=emacs # really simple ;)
********

Everytime I save an email, emacs shows a warning asking me to select
the character coding system, because it finds some non ASCII
characters (iso-8859-1):

********
The target text contains the following non ASCII character(s):
          latin-iso8859-1: َيل...
These can't be encoded safely by the coding system undecided-unix.
Select coding system (default iso-8859-1):

[text/plain, 8bit, iso-8859-1, 0,1K] <== USES 8-BIT ENCODING
********

So I just hit enter and works. It uses a 8-bit conding system. If I
use emacs alone, I have no problem with this characters, so I suppose
mutt tells emacs not to use a 8-bit code with iso-8859-1. But I want
mutt/emacs to use it by default, both 8-bit and iso-8859-1, instead of
undecided-unix (i dont really know whats this..)

I suppose it's a "bit problem" because if I use 7bit ASCII character I
have no warning, and:

********
[text/plain, 7bit, iso-8859-1, 0,1K] <== no warning with 7bit-coding
********

How can I fix it?? How can mutt tell emacs to use 8-bit encoding?? I
have this lines in my .muttrc:

********
unset allow_8bit
set charset="iso-8859-1"        # Charset of Terminal (for display)
set send_charset="iso-8859-1"   # Charset for sent out messages.
********

I also tried with "set allow_8bit", but it did not work. I hope you
could help me,

                                thanks,
                                        Enrique

Excuse my poor english ;)
