Hi, this is no specific mutt question, maybe a general mail delivery or MTA question instead, but I would still like to know it. Some mail programs offer the user the chance to set a so-called priority to the message before the email is sent away. For example, the recipient of an email which was

Hi there, I have two questions. 1.) How can I configure Mutt and teach it to display German umlauts? I could not find any instructions in Mutt's manual how to do this. In the default settings, it always replaces these special characters by a question mark (`?') in the builtin pager and by a dot
