I always used to go into iso-accents-mode and use the punctuation combinations, and it would work. I have: (setq message-default-charset `iso-8859-1) in my .gnus.el. Now when I type a word like Noel, if I put a double dot over the e, when I try to send the message, gnus tells me "Your message contains non-ascii characters, really send?", and if I say "Yes", it asks if I want to use ascii to send, and doesn't give me any other choices. Is there something I should change in my .gnus.el? Not only is the sequence of questions confusing, but it looks to me like the messages don't actually get sent, nor do they get saved in the folder to which they should be gcc'd. I get the following trace in the SMTP session buffer: 220 gamesville.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.9.3/8.9.3; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 14:34:37 -0500 HELO acme47.nineco.com 250 gamesville.com Hello IDENT:lconrad@acme47.nineCo.com [192.168.0.54], pleased to meet you MAIL FROM: 250 ...
