How could I forget that discussion? Nevertheless, I think that using
8-bit characters in the header is better than using quoted-printable
for the whole article, because in my experience, only few newsreaders
will handle quoted-printable, while most can cope even with undeclared
8-bit characters. That's a sad thing, but it's the reality.

Okay, it's in the CVS. Now, Gnus should never use unencoded 8-bit
characters in message headers. If this is a problem, please complain.
Maybe we can add a customize option or something like that if it's
necessary.
