Hi!
I'm trying to get mutt set up to send and receive Japanese (iso-2022-jp
charset) mail. Right now the machine can read Japanese encoded mail,
and can even send Japanese encoded mail (using mule as the editor), but
each time I have to change the Content-Type line from charset=us-ascii
to charset=iso-2022-jp (Control-T lets you edit this).
How can I get mutt to recognize Japanese mail passed via mule as
Japanese, while English mail is recognized as ASCII?
Right now I've got these environment variables set:
JSERVER=localhost
LANG=ja_JP.EUC-JP
EDITOR=mule
TERM=kterm
and I'm opening mutt inside a kterm.
My ~/.muttrc contains:
set send_charset="us-ascii:iso-2022-jp"
The user of the machine will primarily be using everything in English
(except for the occasional email to and from Japan), so I can't do
anything drastic like 'set-language-env -l ja'. I could reverse the
iso-2022-jp and us-ascii in the 'send_charset' variable, but then *all*
the email will leave the system in Japanese. I'd rather mutt decide
for itself which to use.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Chris
