What's the variable "charset" set to in you .muttrc? Does it reflect the

My "charset" value is unset.  And how do I check my locale?  Is that in
/etc/sysconfig/i18n?

[saturn]$ cat i18n
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"

Then try setting

set charset="utf-8" in your .muttrc.

That didn't work. However, when I set charset="utf-8" in my .muttrc, and told Putty to use utf-8 encoding (change settings -> Window -> Translation; Received data assumed to be in which character set: UTF-8)
it did work.

Is there a quick primer on charsets and encoding on the internet I can refer to so that I can learn about all this?

Thanks for your pointer getting me going in the right direction.
