Here's one more: with message-mode, typing `m' or `r' in Rmail starts the *mail* buffer in utf-8 encoding, whereas mail-mode uses the default value of buffer-file-coding-system instead. I don't know where does the utf-8 come from (certainly not from my locale or environment), but such a default sounds strange to me. P.S. I don't know why I keep sending this information, because no one seems to care. Where are all those who asked for it?
