despite all my default en_GB settings, it keeps asking me questions in
french ... maybe a bug, but not sure.

Any way, here is what mutt says:

/home/benoitp/Mail n'existe pas. Le créer ? ([oui]/non):
> means: do you want to create ~/Mail ?

of course pressing ENTER werks fine, but I dont like usinc 'default'
settings, so, since the question was expecting a 'oui' answer' I pressed
'o' ... what does not work.

only the 'y' key works ... what is not intuitive at all if I were not
used to press 'y' is most cases. The question is in french, and waiting
for 'oui', so there is no reason for mutt to wait for 'y'.

Same problem with:
Quitter Mutt ? ([oui]/non):
pressing 'o' is useless ... only ENTER or 'y' are efficient.
