I can see the Euro sign in an xterm command prompt.
But not in mutt if I run it in an xterm. If mutt is in KDE's konsole
(1.6.4) I can see the € (Euro) sign .. So for me it looks like an
xterm issue ... :) IIRC this is an old issue for mutt here ... Never
had the time to explore that ... But I've other font issues with mutt
as well .. :)
