Interesting.

I have had these for a long time:

	(setq mm-coding-system-priorities '(us-ascii iso-2022-jp utf-8 iso-8859-1))
        (setq mm-content-transfer-encoding-defaults
              '(("text/.*" 8bit)
                ("message/rfc822" 8bit)
                ("application/emacs-lisp" qp-or-base64)
                ("application/x-emacs-lisp" qp-or-base64)
                ("application/x-patch" qp-or-base64)
                (".*" base64)))

I did not have any customization on my own to body-charset-encoding-alist 
and C-h v gave me:

    mm-body-charset-encoding-alist's value is 
    ((iso-2022-jp . 7bit)
     (iso-2022-jp-2 . 7bit)
     (utf-16 . base64)
     (utf-16be . base64)
     (utf-16le . base64))

I'll have the following in my .emacs in addition to the coding-system-prio
and c-t-e-defaults I already have:

        (setq mm-body-charset-encoding-alist
              '((iso-2022-jp . 7bit)
                (iso-2022-jp-2 . 7bit)
                (iso-8859-1 . 8bit)
                (utf-8 . 8bit)))

and will see what happens, but I wonder how this new one interacts with
the c-t-e-defaults.

Thanks.
