Zdrastweetya! Sorry to ask in english, but I don't speak Po-Russky well enough to ask in Russian.
I have nearly got my EMACS set up to deal with Russian encoding and display Russian fonts. I can do M-x view-hello-file and I see "Zdrastweetye" in cyrillic. I can type cyrillic without problems. The only trouble I've noticed is when I try to read this list. I read it with GNUS - not sure how RMAIL would work. Anyway, every character of each message from this list is preceeded by "\201". If I were to remove all the "\201"'s the message would be displayed correctly. In other words, the character after the "\201" is correct (they spell valid russian words like "kakya" [in Cyrillic chars]). Anyone know what's wrong? I'm using emacs 20.5 and X windows.
