a flag if I enable the flag column. This is IMAP. If I go into Gnus and

I am using xterm.
When I switch on Agent for a server I find the colouring changes in the
summary buffers. I think it is on all but one group. The colour has
changed to blue/grey as if the articles have been read, whereas they normally

This also happens using gtk

Is it possible to make Gnus default to Windows-1252 (or iso-8859-?) when
no character set is specified in headers of news articles?
I searched but only found the concept of washing, which replaces “ when
encoded as octal 224 with `` for example. W Y f. A very useful function
anyway.
