Subject: i18n issues: wrong encoding
Date: Fri, 05 May 2006 14:48:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <almzdw8fzw.fsf@quant8.janestcapital.quant> (raw)
usually, the Cyrillic messages I receive (via IMAP) are displayed properly.
alas, every now and then I see garbage (umlauted vowels).
when that happens, I have to open the message in Evolution (or
Thunderbird) - it is displayed as garbage there too, of course! - then
go to the menu -> View -> Character Encoding -> [try several encodings
until the message is readable].
How do I do the same in gnus/emacs (emacs cvs head)?
I.e., how do I change the encoding of a given buffer?
