My previous test article was incorrect, sorry. The text/plain messages
with one part, even if they are QP-encoded, are displayed fine. The
problem appears in multipart messages. E.g multipart/alternative in
which the text part is QP-encoded, is displayed buggily. I'm sending a
sample message (which _definitely_ is viewed buggy for me) to you in a
private mail. And: the 8-bit articles in koi8-r which do not have C-T
header, are displayed incorrectly: i see iso-8859-1 characters instead
of russian characters, but i have

  (setq mm-default-coding-system 'koi8)

in my ~/.emacs file. This worked fine with 0.54, but was broken in 0.55.

i'll try this, and will report soon.

 ZSH> BTW, what is difference between koi8-r and koi8?

No difference at all. koi8-r is the correct name. Koi8 is an
alias. There are some variants of koi8-r which are not yet
standardized, --- e.g. koi8-u, koi8-ru, koi8-rub (extensions for the
Ukrainian and Byelorussian languages). But koi8-r is a standard
charset specified in RFC.

That's very strange. What does it show? Does adding of the line e.g.
;-*-coding: koi8-r;-*-
help?
