1 Hi,
2
3 it seems, that I have an encoding problem...which is triggered
4 (only???) somewhere in the chain fetchmail=>procmail=>neomutt with vim.
5
6 ...and it only effects single and double quotes.
7
8 I am living in Non-Ascii-land (germany). Therefore I have
9 some "strange" ;) characters on my keyboard...the "Umlauts"
10 und the sharp S.
11
12 All those are displayed nicely...in neomutt/vim also (which I use for
13 mailing).
14
15 When I receive an email with single quotes (') or double
16 quotes ("), they will be changed to "???".

18 My settings (settings to English language are for displaying -- for
19 example -- manpages in their original version - not the translated ones):
