Thomas and Mikko,

Thanks for the updated docs concerning RCF2047 decoding.  Thomas, if you
are so inclined please feel free to use or modify any of my previous
comments on your doc when updating the mutt manual.  

Perhaps in the future, additions to the mutt manual should be reviewed on
either the mutt-dev or mutt-users list and people could make editorial
suggestions.  This could go a long way towards making the docs more
meaningful to a wider audience.

Okay, perhaps you could add the above to the docs?
