Rmail uses the standard @samp{charset=@var{charset}} header in the message, if any, to determine how the message was encoded by the sender. It maps @var{charset} into the corresponding Emacs coding system (@pxref{Coding Systems}), and uses that coding system to decode -message text. If the message header doesn't have the charset -specification, or if the @var{charset} it specifies is not recognized, +message text. If the message header doesn't have the @samp{charset} +specification, or if @var{charset} is not recognized, Rmail chooses the coding system with the usual Emacs heuristics and defaults (@pxref{Recognize Coding}).
