Well. Haven't received any reply on my problems from the semi-gnus
people (which i reported to the ding list too), i've tried pgnus. i
downloaded the pgnus-0.23.  Unfortunately, it was unable to show
messages with

Content-Type: text/plain;  charset=koi8-r
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

I.e. they contained 8-bit cyrillic letters in a koi8-r
encoding. Instead of `normal' letters i got combinations like \214
followed by some non-latin letters (but not from koi8-r correct as
well). all cyrillic letters were prefixed with \214

The same happens in the summary buffer for subjects in koi8-r.

Also, for multipart mime messages, which gnus tried to show, i got the
following results. if the part had type:

Content-Type: text/plain;
	charset="koi8-r"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

then the characters were shown as e.g.

\317\326\305\324...

(i haven't touched the standard-display-8bit). I have the following in
my .emacs:

(set-default-font "fontset-standard")
(set-language-environment "Cyrillic-KOI8")
(setq default-mime-charset 'koi8-r)
