Hi there!

I'm trying to migrate to iso-8859-15 until January 2002 (time of the ¤
becoming legal tender in some European countries).

That's what I've done so far:

* XFree 4.1.0 with iso-8859-15 fonts.
* Emacs 21.1
* Oort Gnus
* (set-language-environment "Latin-9")

My own messages are properly encoded in iso-8859-15.  But quoting
parts of other messages that are encoded iso-8859-1 causes Gnus to
create a multipart/mixed message with the quoted parts encoded in
iso-8859-1 and added parts in iso-8859-15.

I know that it's difficult or even impossible for Gnus to determine
whether iso-8859-1 would suffice to encode the whole message.  What I
would prefer is telling Gnus to encode the whole message in
iso-8859-15.  How?

Cheers, Ray
