Also, the "XXX writes", > where XXX is extracted from the From:, have 8-bit characters too... It is because you did not setup the group charset right. By default, the group charset is iso8859-1, so what you see is not 8-bit characters, but iso-8859-1 characters. To setup the default group charset, you can configure the charset parameter (maybe also ignored-charsets) in the group parameters. Once you set it to big5, you can always see Chinese in the From header, also To: field when you reply. To override the default charset temporarily, you could type `0 G cn-big5 RET' on the message.
