That would certainly be a cool thing to have working.

Has anyone of you already worked on this? Has nayone information that
can help me?

You might be interested in this:

which I wrote back in 2008(!) about nmh's MIME handling issues.
Basically there are a number of intertwined problems. My major
concern would be that in fixing de-encoding when composing
replies we don't accidentally paint ourselves into a corner
for the UI/config settings for getting the larger issues right.

For users in non-English speaking countries such issues matter much.
Using nmh though is currently pretty tough. ;-)

I completely agree. I'll try to make some time to take another
look at this some time this week. (I'm at the Ubuntu Developer
Summit so I'm in a free software kind of mood anyway :-))
