Emacs 20.2, Gnus 5.5, SEMI 0.115, Gcc, Latin-1 characters

[Kai Grossjohann]

I use the above combination of stuff.  I observe the following:

IF I write a message with Latin-1 characters in it (German Umlaute),
AND IF I use the Gcc header to write the message to a group,
THEN the Gcc'ed copy contains the multibyte prefix \201 for each
Umlaut character.

If I send the mail to myself, there is no problem.

If I both send it and Gcc it, then the Gcc'ed copy on disk has the
prefix characters and the sent copy doesn't.

Additional piece of information: the Gcc'ed copy contains no MIME
headers whatsoever.

What's going on here?  I think I remember a problem with missing MIME
processing when doing Gcc in older versions of Gnus (maybe a year
ago?), but that has been solved already.

Tomo?  Lars?

Well, it sound like Mule again.

Seems so.  With the MBSK I don't seem to have such problems, albeit
not with that Gnus.

  I don't think so.

  I think it is caused by saving before MIME processing.  Maybe
it occurs for multipart message even if MULE feature is killed.

  I will check timing of message conversion and fix this problem.
Perhaps it will require to modify message.el or other files.
