Hello Florian,

FW> Could try the following value for gnus-group-posting-charset-alist,
FW> please?

FW> (setq gnus-group-posting-charset-alist 
FW>   '((message-this-is-mail nil nil)
FW>     (message-this-is-news koi8-r koi8-r)))

FW> This should mimic the behavior of the old setting.  (Perhaps this
FW> variable should be given an new name?)

Yes,  with this setting GNUS 5.8.3 works fine; it works fine also when
I  don't  change  this  variable  at  all in my .emacs, so I was wrong
trying to play with it. I've set it long ago time when I tried to make
GNUS  use  koi8-r  instead of iso8859-5 when posting. Now all relevant
information  is  in the manual under "Charsets" topic (it wasn't there
several months ago).

I don't think that this variable should be renamed, since it can break
working configs. Maybe some words should be included in documentation,
like "don't try to use this variable to change the charset of outgoing
messages, use 'preferred-coding-system property instead".


Best regards,
 Roman                            mailto:roman@nstl.nnov.ru
