Hello

I use gnus with both Emacsen. However the drafts which are saved are not
compatible with each other.


According to the documentation"

| `message-draft-coding-system' is a variable declared in Lisp.

| Value: escape-quoted

| *Coding system to compose mail.
| If you'd like to make it possible to share draft files between XEmacs
| and Emacs, you may use `iso-2022-7bit' for this value at your own risk.
| Note that the coding-system `iso-2022-7bit' isn't suitable to all data.

I tried that but this coding setting but alas it does not make the
drafts compatible.

Why does Xemacs not support the utf-8 coding for drafts, although in
general it does support this format?
