Hi,

this is a test message in which there is no content-type header. the
message contains text in koi8-r 8-bit encoding, so you should set
(setq mm-default-coding-system 'koi8) in your ~/.emacs file to see
russian letters. but with pgnus 0.55 and 0.56, i cannot see them, ---
i see latin1 (iso-8859-1) characters instead.

Here is a Russian alphabet:

uppercase: áâ÷çäå³öúéêëìíîïðòóôõæèãþûýÿùøüàñ
lowercase: ÁÂ×ÇÄÅ£ÖÚÉÊËÌÍÎÏÐÒÓÔÕÆÈÃÞÛÝßÙØÜÀÑ

	Best regards, -- Vladimir.
