I have the problem that the text are altered,
Altered when? It may be the editor you use that stores text in
a different encoding.
has anyone managed to run
without problems the latest version of Mutt with UTF-8?
Yes, always.
This is my locale exit
en_US.iso88591
en_US.utf8
es_US
es_US.iso88591
es_US.utf8
So which one is it? There can be only one. Running 'locale', the output
should contain
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8"
(or
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
)
In my .muttrc
set charset = "UTF-8"
Try to remove. Citing from man muttrc for 'charset':
| Character set your terminal uses to display and enter textual data. It is also the fallback for
| $send_charset.
|
| Upon startup Mutt tries to derive this value from environment variables such as $LC_CTYPE or $LANG.
|
| Note: It should only be set in case Mutt isn't able to determine the character set used correctly.
If the encoding is changed when sending the mail then check the content
of mutt's 'send_charset' variable, if set it should contain utf-8, for
example with
set send_charset="us-ascii:utf-8"
mutt tries to use us-ascii if possible, but if non-ascii characters are
used it uses utf-8. For legacy reasons (communicating with rare MUAs
that don't know utf-8) it may be helpful for the receiver to have
set send_charset="us-ascii:iso-8859-1:iso-8859-2:utf-8"
so iso-8859-1 is used if possible before utf-8.
