Well, you cannot see subjects in the index view then.
Have you tried to unset LC_CTYPE as Roger suggested? I don't know how good that
works. I assume without LC_CTYPE, the locale will fallback to
C or POSIX. LC_CTYPE=C has no printable char outside ASCII.
for my approach, you have to generate da_DK.ISO-8859-1 first by
remove the # in the relative line of /etc/locale.gen and run
locale-gen as root.
Or you have to recompile mutt with locale-fix... options, Roger
has filled a bug report on it. Seems it will be in the next version
of mutt official release. Could take a while though.
