Yep, understood. However, if whatever I'm using wants to auto-detect and slap
the proper charset on the message, so be it (as long as it's correct, of
course). This has been the case so far with slrn, tin, and now neomutt (and I
think I like the latter the best, so far.. probably because it's the only one
of the three that does email *and* nntp).

options? :)
