I'll try, but for now, i'd like to ask one question. ;-) The mm-util.el from pgnus contains the following: (defvar mm-mime-mule-charset-alist '((us-ascii ascii) (iso-8859-1 latin-iso8859-1) (iso-8859-2 latin-iso8859-2) (iso-8859-3 latin-iso8859-3) (iso-8859-4 latin-iso8859-4) (iso-8859-5 cyrillic-iso8859-5) (koi8-r cyrillic-iso8859-5) (iso-8859-6 arabic-iso8859-6) (iso-8859-7 greek-iso8859-7) [the rest skipped] Note the presence of two lines corresponding to cyrillic-iso8859-5 mule charset: (iso-8859-5 cyrillic-iso8859-5) (koi8-r cyrillic-iso8859-5) I wonder, does the first line override the second one??? I suppose that if i'll remove the line (iso-8859-5 cyrillic-iso8859-5) then gnus will use koi8-r by befault (and btw koi8-r is a de-facto standard for russian e-mail exchange anyway; the presence of two mappings for one mule encoding does not seem useful anyway btw, --- is it a bug?). Best regards, -- Vladimir. -- Stability itself is nothing else than a more sluggish motion.
