Firstly a huge thank you.  Now, you've shown me where to look.  (As I
said in my original post, I wasn't sure if this was a FreeBSD issue,
mutt issue or xterm issue.)

I'm actually using muttng (At the time, it had something that mutt-devel
didn't have, and I've just never bothered to switch back.)

I kick it off with either LC_CTYPE of ja_JP.UTF-8 or en_US.UTF-8
depending upon whether I simply type mutt in mlterm or use a fluxbox
keybinding.  (the result with ISO-2022-JP is the same however.

Shown above---I think I just took the defaults, but will probably play
with it more tomorrow.   (In my first post, I wasn't sure if mutt was
what I should be looking at, so didn't include it then.)

As I said, it most certainly does, it shows me where to start digging.

Thank you again.
