Strange. I have good expierence of using Gnus in Emacs 21.1/Mule and
XEmacs 21.1 and 21.4 non-Mule, while setting really a few variables (I
am a Russian user and I do read and post in fido7.* every morning along
with my cup of coffee).

I believe, all my related settings are:

(setq gnus-group-charset-alist '((".*" koi8-r))

      gnus-group-posting-charset-alist
      '((message-this-is-news koi8-r (koi8-r))
	(message-this-is-mail nil (koi8-r)))

      mm-body-charset-encoding-alist '((koi8-r . 8bit))
      message-default-charset 'koi8-r)

Plus this construction to make Mule happy:
(put-charset-property 'cyrillic-iso8859-5
                      'preferred-coding-system 'koi8-r)

NB: My setup does not include any references to other charsets (I don't
use them) or Mule-specific stuff to force KOI-8 (I have set up KOI8-R
env. in Mule by default, so I don't need to override it -- I even don't
know, if it's needed).
