That's one of the very annoying features of mutt. Is mostly comes from
your settigns requiring to send mails in ISO-8859-2. As PO files are
considered as text files, mut re-encodes them just as it re-encodes
your mail text if needed.

The solution to this is to tell mutt that PO files are *not* text
files:

~/.mime.types:

application/x-gettext po
