Ah, right.  I didn't remember correctly ... `gnus-group-posting-
charset-alist' is not the way to prefer a charset.  That option only
says how a charset should be encoded.

To prefer koi8-r over utf-8 you can do a number of thing:

* Start Emacs in a Russian locale.
* Set the language environment in Emacs: `C-x RET l Russian'
* Customize `mm-coding-system-priorities'.
* ... there are probably some more ways.
