Gnus seems to always convert the charset header of my encrypted messages to us-ascii, but my recipients that use non-ascii characters have confirmed that the messages are Ok after decryption. May be it's worth trying pgg + gpg ? * Info PGG * ,---------------------------------------------------------------------- | File: pgg, Node: Overview | | PGG is an interface library between Emacs and various tools for secure | communication.
