I found the cause of this problem. It has nothing to do with Pgnus.
It was my fault, the reason was that I didn't have the option
`no mimedecode'
in my `.fetchmailrc'. This option is on by default in the latest
version of fetchmail, but I was using a somewhat older version.
Without this option fetchmail will decode MIME-encoded header into
8-bit data. Then of course Pgnus can't know anymore what character-set
to use for displaying the header.
Sorry if I caused confusion.
Mike
