No. Still UTF-8 characters displayed as strange glyphs instead of normal
french accentuated letters (classical problem of UTF-8 displayed in a
iso8859-1 mode).

If you say so ;) My wild guess : maybe that's the problem ? ... If it
did, then I'd expect the emacs rendering to be in sync between what it
is told to display and how it does it ? When displaying same emails with
Gnus, I can see accents correctly, and, guess what ? the modeline is indeed marking a
UTF-8 indicator instead of a latin1 one ;-)... but maybe I'm completely
getting it wrong.

Thanks for your time.
