Steps to reproduce: 1. visit a newsgroup with a non-latin language, I used fido7.ru.student.talks 2. view a message and set the coding: KOI8, Autodetect Off 3. view next message result: character coding is back to ISO-8859-1 expected result: character coding stays as set (KOI8) for the entire newsgroup including headers. I am using mozilla 0.9.9-2mdk/Linux. Auto-Detect is also unusable b/c only the body not the headers are encoded, this is bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90584

The menu change is not supposed to change charsets of the folder. There is a
feature to set a charset per folder bases in folder property UI.

Well I understood that there is a different UI for the folder. But if I change the encoding of one message I expect: a) that the encoding affects the message as well as the appropriate headers in the table above (maybe this is a seperate bug?) b) that the encoding is durable, so that I dont have to change the encoding over and over again everytime I view the (same) message

Experiencing the exact same problem : Using Mozilla 1.3b Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030210 Edit > Preferences > Languages > Default Character coding is NOT respected it automatically reverts to Western (ISO-8859-1) This might not sound like a big problem except for the fact that improper character coding messes up the page layout in some cases (phpfrance.com/forums)

Same problem here! Browsing a RUSSIAN FTP server with both Latin and Russian characters, and because coding jumps back to 'Western (ISO- 8859-1)' all the time, Cyrillic (Windows-1251) coding has always to be reset MANUALLY if I move to another folder! ARGL! Please fix this. This *is* a bug and shouldn't behave that way. [OS: Win2K SP 3, tried with latest nightly build 2003070312]
