You might want to include a "Content-Type:" header with some value that
makes sense.

Or if you want to be fancy, convert from the IIgs native encoding to
something smarter like ISO-8859-1 or even Unicode (does NNTP handle
UTF-8 these days?). As long as you stick to a 256 or less character set
(i.e. the native GSOS encoding, whatever that is...) you should be able
to do it with a very simple table.
