Hi,

I didn't find any things about someone having the same problem as me, but find
a lot of people having the same problem, so I ask my question here.

I get troubles using vm to send mail when I use accentuated characters. The
characters are coded very strangely and the message does not seems to be
mime-encoded.

For instance here is a preview (C-c C-p) of a mail I composed and which
contains only on accentued e (like \'e in TeX) :

I think it is a problem in vm because when I use message-mode (from gnus) all
seems to be right.

I use emacs 21.2.1 under Debian and vm 7.03. I use the
'(current-language-environment "Latin-9") in my custom file in order to be
able to get the euro symbol in my mails.

Any ideas about what I did the wrong way ?
