Hello Joerg, and thanks for the report.

Date and time in attributions don't follow the locale from environment. They follow Mutt's $locale variable. The user is reponsible to set $locale to any available value using the same charset as the current locale. If you want to attribute in German: | set locale=de_DE.UTF-8 If you want to automatically follow your own locale: | set locale=`echo "${LC_ALL:-${LC_TIME:-${LANG}}}"` If you want to attribute in French: | set locale=fr_FR.UTF-8 ...und so weiter. Does it work now? | $ attributer de_DE.UTF-8 | set my_save_config_charset="$config_charset" | set config_charset="utf-8" | set attribution=" Am %d, %n schrieb:\n" | set date_format="%A %-d %B %Y um %-H:%M:%S %Z" | set locale="de_DE.UTF-8" | set config_charset="$my_save_config_charset" | unset my_save_config_charset Bye!
