Sure. I have defined fontset as:
(cond (window-system
       (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
        "-adobe-courier-medium-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-Mikhail,

cyrillic-iso8859-5:-adobe-courier-medium-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-5,
;       cyrillic-iso8859-5:-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-5,
	cyrillic-koi8-r:-adobe_koi8_1-courier-medium-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-koi8-*"
	t)

No hope? It should be possible I guess, since it shows correctly koi8
headers coded with MIME.

I have feeling that there is just a few variables to set and than
everything is fine.

Curiosity and some annoying things with new installation of Xemacs.
 Probably it would be easier to resolve them than fight with
customization of emacs.
