Setting the default encoding as "ascii" is very conservative until we
know the encoding actually used by the server.

Are you sure that comp.lang.python uses latin-1? RFC3977, which
re-defines the NNTP protocol, prefers utf-8 for the character set.

Is there a way to know the character set used by a server?
