Hi Ken,
FWIW, I looked at mutt and it's fallback if the locale is US-ASCII but
the characters are 8bit is to output "unknown-8bit" as the charset.
Seems like a reasonable idea to me.
Isn't that just punting the problem downstream, forcing others to
investigate unknown-8bit, probably with suspicion; "Is it trying to
trigger some flaw?"? Better to plug foulness at the source and refuse
to produce it IMO. I can't see why it's a valid thing to attempt in the
modern day.
Cheers, Ralph.
