strange CTE header

strange CTE header

[Kai.Grossjohann]

Outgoing messages with Latin 1 characters (äöü) are sent with CTE 8bit
rather than quoted-printable, even though
mm-content-transfer-encoding-defaults is

,-----
| mm-content-transfer-encoding-defaults's value is 
| (("text/.*" quoted-printable)
|  ("message/rfc822" quoted-printable)
|  ("application/emacs-lisp" 8bit)
|  ("application/x-patch" 8bit)
|  (".*" base64))
| 
| 
| Documentation:
| Alist of regexps that match MIME types and their encodings.

What can I do?

rfc2047-default-charset and rfc2047-charset-encoding-alist also meddle
here.  I think some cleanup (or rather, simplification) in this area
may be required, but I'm not sure...

Hm.  Doing (setq rfc2047-default-charset 'us-ascii) produces an error
"Invalid coding system: us-ascii" when sending a message.  (setq
rfc2047-default-charset nil) produces the same result as the default
value of iso-8859-1 -- CTE is 8bit.

Is my configuration broken?

(Home, sweet home.  Computing while commuting wasn't as much fun as I
thought it would be.  Books rool when traveling.)

Yup.  Fix in Pterodactyl Gnus v0.69.
