My emacs (-q --no-site-init) cannot save that cyrillic string as
UTF-8.  C-x C-s doesn't include UTF-8 as an option.  If I go ahead and
select UTF-8 anyway, the data is corrupted (just like the warning
says).  I think Gnus is sending that corrupt byte sequence for me.

Fortunately, it is simple to reproduce with easier examples, try
inserting <#part charset=iso-8859-1> €uro in a message and previewing
it.  Gnus tags it as iso-8859-1 but corrupt the euro character,
replacing it with a ?.

I think Gnus should warn the user that the indicated charset is unable
to encode the data you wrote.  I'm not sure it should propose
something else, it seems overly complicated.

I have no idea why it worked for Jesper, perhaps you use mule-ucs or
have some customization that fixes this?
