I use that as well

I have been seeing the same in a non-mule XEmacs. without iso-accents
(One of my keyboards has German umlauts on it).

I answer both of the questions Laura quoted with 'y' and then get
asked them again, answer 'y' again. Apparently the mail then gets sent
normally and shows up in the Gcc group.

char-charset is not defined -- peeking at mm-util.el it might be
interesting to note that charset-after isn't defined either. This is
XEmacs-21.1.8 no-mule with the old SUMO tarball.
