Thanks Kevin!

So, I started mutt as follows:

LANGUAGE=nl_NL mutt

Which changed the language of mutt, but none of the other settings. So, locale
yesexpr was the same as the one you show. After also setting LC_MESSAGES to
nl_NL, it shows what I'd expect:

LC_MESSAGES=nl_NL LANGUAGE=nl_NL locale yesexpr
^[+1jJyY]

Another thing learned, merci!

Kind regards,

Remco
