I suspect it has something to do with the Subject of the article, because I can reproduce it with subjects like "öö%" (without the quotes). Tested subjects: a, b, ..., z, å, ä, ö: OK aa, bb, ..., zz, åå, ää, öö: OK a%, b%, ..., z%, å%, ä%, ö%: OK aa%, bb%, ..., zz%: OK åå%, ää%, öö%: beep beep beep Yes, there are subjects like this out there: here is the thread I couldn't read (it's in Finnish): There is one article in the thread posted with Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.2, so I wonder if this is a Gnus problem or an Emacs problem? Debugging a bit seemed to show that everything goes fine until the modeline of the *Article* buffer is updated: in gnus-set-mode-line the form (setq mode-line-buffer-identification (gnus-mode-line-buffer-identification (list mode-string))) shows the problem. My beeping Emacs and Gnus versions: GNU Emacs 21.1.1 (i586-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit) of 2001-10-24 Gnus v5.10.3 (from CVS a week ago) GNU Emacs 21.1.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit) of 2001-10-24 Oort Gnus v0.16 Does anybody have any ideas about what is happening here? -- Janne Rinta-Mänty
