Hi,

in pgnus 0.99, according to ChangeLog, mm-body-charset-encoding-alist
was defaulted to nil. Previously, it contained a record that
text/plain parts in koi8-r should be sent using 8bit CTE.

Now, in 0.99, a single-part messages in koi8-r are sent usint 8bit
CTE, but as long as the message contains some attachment (say, a zip
file), the text/plain part is also encoded in base64.

Is this a feature or a bug? Should i set
mm-body-charset-encoding-alist manually to force gnus always use 8bit
CTE for koi8-r?

	Best regards, -- Vladimir.
