Hi,
some broken mailers set
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
and use 8-bit characters (e.g. koi8-r). Or sometimes they use headers
in encode-word format like =?us-ascii?[qb]?...?=, but the decoded text
contains 8-bit data. Since us-ascii is a 7-bit encoding, such 8-bit
chars are illegal there.
When gnus processes such messages, it seems to take 8-bit chars by
default from iso-8859-1. Would it be possible to use
rfc2047-default-charset instead (in my situation such 8-bit text is
often koi8-r encoded)?
Best regards, -- Vladimir.
