How can I set the charset for posting to a newsgroup to iso-8859-1 and
not utf-8. Even though there is no mention of utf-8 in
gnus-group-posting-charset-alist, I get the following error message.

441 441 437 utf-8 charset is not allowed in group proxad.free.adsl.degroupage 
Couldn't send message via news: 441 441 437 utf-8 charset is not allowed
in group proxad.free.adsl.degroupage

I have this in my ~/.gnus:

    ; Use iso-8859-1 if possible (http://gnus.org/manual/emacs-mime_13.html#SEC13):
    (setq mm-coding-system-priorities '(iso-8859-1))

I have an older thing commented out:

    ; Default to latin1:
    ;; not utf-8: (setq message-default-charset 'iso-8859-1)

which may or may not be of any help.


  Best regards,

   Adam
