problem with some codifications...

[Igor Sosa Mayor]

Hi,

since 2 weeks I'm using gnus without problem and I'm really happy. 

I'm only experiencing some strnage problems with the codification in one
mailing list. I see some messages like that:

http://picpaste.de/pics/gnus-lista-wpG3muCB.1398751584.png

with this \363, \355,... 

It is this message:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.general.spanish/38

I'm trying to analyse the headers, but I don't see where the problem
could be...

Any idea?

It is likely that either the Content-Type header doesn't specify the
correct encoding, or there are mixed encondings in the message.

thanks for your answer. What could be the best solution in such cases?

Maybe trying to solve the problem on your side: could it be that
pressing «W U» fixes the text?  See the documentation at

yes, I tried some of these methods. Unsuccessfully...

For the records, I answer the question myself: it seems to work with
either (gnus-article-decode-charset) or
(gnus-article-decode-mime-words), which are bound to M W c/w
