20 Yes, i have it that way before, and the same problem. But then i see
21 the mutt FAQ (http://wiki.mutt.org/index.cgi?MuttFaq/Charset) which says:
22
23 "Default Slang seems not to work with UTF-8, relink Mutt against
24 libncursesw. (Hello Gentoo users :-)"
25
26 So, maybe this is an old issue, but the first step i choose to do was
27 to relink to ncurses and give up slang, that way i don't have to keep
28 an eye on versions and stuff, in fact only mutt was using slang on my
29 system, so nothing is missed.
30
31 Besides, the problem already was there when using slang.
