This tells Gnus to encrypt outgoing mail to that recipient.  And
sencrypt works ok with older Gnus versions (except umlauts), but
encrypt doesn't.

This mail should be in Vanilla PGP, as the mails I have problems with.

The problem might be that I use UTF-8 as my default character
encoding.  The recipients still use iso-8859-15.  One ngnus gets
released, I might change the recieving systems to a newer gnus.
