yes.

no, i cannot see such a button even if i use `M-t' or `K b' (at least
in nnmbox backend). [see my first message in this thread]

that's the whole point of rfc2047-default-charset and/or
gnus-default-charset? i.e. in the text messages with unspecified
charset or with broken syntax of c-t header or if 8-bit chars are
present while c-t claims that charset is us-ascii. or am i missing
something? gnus should treat 8-bit (non-ASCII) chars as encoded in
rfc2047-default-charset in such situations.

 ZSH> There is a trick to show the decoded content. Press 'i' on the

i do not see a button, --- see my first message in this thread.

 ZSH> The documentation is incorrect.

then, what is the difference betweem rfc2047-default-charset and
gnus-default-charset? both are defined in gnus...
