I've can get the error
Can't find a coding system for charset unknown

when attempting to send email. This is with emacs 21.1 and vm 7.01
(though I think I've seen it in earlier version of vm). I can
replicate this by creating an email which contains, in its body, text
pasted from netscape

vm-send-using-mime is set to t and I get around the problem by setting
it to nil

In netscape I've got en-gb as the web page setting though the text I
was pasting didn't _appear_ to have any funny characters
