That's the way I get them, and setting LANG doesn't seem to help any. Makes it amusing to read English with this new fad of accent marks, I must say. If anyone knows how to configure Mutt not to misbehave this way, I'd be happy to know about it. -- John Cowan <jcowan@...> www.ccil.org/~cowan www.reutershealth.com Micropayment advocates mistakenly believe that efficient allocation of resources is the purpose of markets. Efficiency is a byproduct of market systems, not their goal. The reasons markets work are not because users have embraced efficiency but because markets are the best place to allow users to maximize their preferences, and very often their preferences are not for conservation of cheap resources. --Clay Shirkey
