* emacs-mime.texi (Non-MIME): Add diff.
Mapping from @sc{mime} charset to encoding to use. This variable is
usually used except, e.g., when other requirements force a specific
encoding (digitally signed messages require 7bit encodings). The
-default is @code{((iso-2022-jp . 7bit) (iso-2022-jp-2 . 7bit))}. As
-an example, if you do not want to have ISO-8859-1 characters
+default is
+
+@lisp
+((iso-2022-jp . 7bit)
+ (iso-2022-jp-2 . 7bit)
+ (utf-16 . base64)
+ (utf-16be . base64)
+ (utf-16le . base64))
+@end lisp
+
+As an example, if you do not want to have ISO-8859-1 characters
quoted-printable encoded, you may add @code{(iso-8859-1 . 8bit)} to
this variable. You can override this setting on a per-message basis
by using the @code{encoding} MML tag (@pxref{MML Definition}).
