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.

This message shows Russian alphabet if I set "charset" in *Gnus
Customize* ("G c" in group buffer) to "koi8".

If you need to set lots of groups, I suggest you to set
gnus-newsgroup-default-charset-alist instead of
mm-default-coding-system or rfc2047-default-charset.

Thanks, this works. But without setting of
gnus-newsgroup-default-charset-alist this does not work in pgnus-0.58.
So, is it a bug? Why the mm-default-coding-system is not used to view
8-bit messages with undefined charset?
