You need to setup Windows-1251 aka codepage 1251 with `codepage-setup'
and add an entry to `mm-charset-synonym-alist'.

I'd suggest the following code:

(eval-after-load "mm-util"
  '(progn
     (codepage-setup 1251)
     (when (and (not (mm-coding-system-p 'windows-1251))
		(mm-coding-system-p 'cp1251))
       (add-to-list 'mm-charset-synonym-alist
		    '(windows-1251 . cp1251)))))

Bye, Reiner.
