I hope that this utf-8 message will give no trouble to anyone.

Poor indeed, but not non-existent. I do not dare posting an e-mail
with attached images there, but Emacs running VM within sakura
displays poorly (mangled and dotted) the "ഖി" gliph (Emacs running
within X does it fine - to someone that does not know the alphabet the
gliphs look fine).
rxvt-unicode was disappointing.
Mutt running within an Emacs X frame and ansi-term gave mixed results:
When entering "അഖിൽ കൃഷ്ണൻ എസ്" within the e-mail address I got some
numeric escapes (\uXXXX) but that was in an Emacs mini-buffer.
When I entered the same string in the e-mail body -this time into the
ansi-term buffer- the string was displayed correctly.
A solution could be to use mutt within Emacs using ansi-term :)
