Description

Package: mutt
Version: 1.4i
Severity: wishlist

-- Please type your report below this line

It would be great if mutt enabled iconv transliteration when displaying
messages.  The current work-around when using GNU libiconv is to set the
charset to ISO-8859-1//TRANSLIT or the like, but that seems unclean.
Why not add a muttrc configuration option that enables or disables iconv
transliteration when available?  Either that, or always turn on
transliteration.  Most of the enabling code is already available in
intl/loadmsgcat.c.
