 Character set support

 install Bruno Haible's portable libiconv library, which you can obtain
 from:

 Even if your system does provide the iconv functions, you might want
 to install libiconv, as some systems provide only a very limited
 version of iconv.

+If you decide to use your system's iconv implementation, you may
+need to tell mutt about implementation-defined names for some
+character sets.  Sample configuration files for various systems can
+be found in the directory contrib/iconv/ in this source
+distribution, and will be installed in the samples/iconv directory
+as part of mutt's documentation.
+
+In order to use these sample configuration files, just put a line
+like
+
+     source /usr/local/doc/mutt/samples/iconv/iconv.osf1-4.0d.rc
+
+into your system's global Muttrc, which normally resides in /etc or
+/usr/local/etc.

 If you really want to, you can configure Mutt --without-iconv, but
 there will then be no character set conversion.
