Hallöchen!
How can I set the encoding of one article that I write or read?
If I read a posting in an obviously wrong encoding, but I know the
right one, how can I set it?
And if I have to deal with a newsreader at the other end of the line
that is incapable of my UTF-8, how can I post an article in Latin-9?
Thanks!
Tschö,
Torsten.

You may also set `mm-coding-system-priorities' on a per-group basis or

| ("^fj\\." ;; Japan?
| (mm-coding-system-priorities '(shift_jis iso-2022-jp utf-8)))
| ("^cz\\."
| (mm-coding-system-priorities '(iso-8859-2 utf-8)))))

For the fj hierarchy, it will be better to use the default value
of the case where Gnus runs in the Japanese language environment.
That is:
("^fj\\." ;; Japan
(mm-coding-system-priorities
'(iso-8859-1 iso-2022-jp iso-2022-jp-2 shift_jis utf-8)))
You all might not write Japanese articles, though. ;-)

Exactly. :-) Thanks for the correction.
In the article quoted above, I used the suggestions from the previous
poster[1]. It was only to demonstrate that Gnus allows the
specification of the outgoing charset on a hierarchical basis.
Bye, Reiner.
[1] One of those "Is there any newsreader that supports ...?"
questions, where (of course[2]) the answer always is "Gnus".
