No mutt haven't done any recoding. It took the file and said you should
view it as iso-8859-1. That's wrong, but mutt didn't change the content.
If you save it as iso-8859-1 file (and don't do any recoding !), you get
the same file as I have.

No, mutt doesn't change the file. It makes a guess which format it might
be and tells this the recipient, but it doesn't change the content. It's
the same as making no guess and use application/octet-stream for
everything.

The attachment fetched from
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=10;filename=pt.po;att=1;bug=433397
is the same as the file I've send.

% wget -O - -q

I don't see the problem. Save the attachment and edit it. What more do
you want?

Bye, Jörg.
