Hello!

I use Gnus 5.8.7 and for a while I noticed that sometimes articles
contain quoted-printable encoded characters which are not decoded.

I just found out that this seems to happen with *all* messages which
are encoded like this:

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable


If I use umlauts in my own messages, the messages also get
qp-encoded by Gnus. When reading the messages from the sent-mail-
folder, the characters also are not decoded.


I don't know if my Gnus always didn't decode qp, but I don't think
so. I just fiddled around with my configuration, but I couldn't find a
solution for this problem.


My .gnus contains the following lines which deal with charsets or mime
decoding:

(setq gnus-newsgroup-ignored-charsets '(gnus-unknown))
(require 'mm-util)
(defun mm-read-charset (prompt)
  "Return a charset."
  'iso-8859-1)
(setq gnus-default-posting-charset (quote iso-8859-1))
(setq gnus-article-decode-mime-words t)
(setq gnus-article-decode-charset 1)


Any ideas how I can make my Gnus display quoted-printable correctly?
