Re: character set for Russian and French reading Google News

[soichi]

Thanks for the reply.

I have added

 (setq mm-text-html-renderer 'w3m)

into .gnus.el, but no change.  I believe that emacs-w3m is the latest.

More precisely, the following happens.

When I choose an entry of the feed in the summary buffer, Emacs asks,

"Message contains characters with unknown encoding."
"use ASCII as charset?"

if I choose "y" for it, the fonts become a mess. "n" does pretty much the same.

If I jump from a link in the entry to the real web page with w3m, the fonts are 
fine.

Do I need something else? Or something interferes it?
