The result was: > ("Max Sch" "max@plank.org") This means that the problem is with `mail-extract-address-components' (as you can see). Since the base emacs functionality doesn't work, there nothing that I can do, other than try to hack around it, which is not something that I want to do. You may want to try getting the 20.3 version of mail-extr, and see if that fixes the problem. > But, if I startet another emacs (language-environment was not already > set to "Latin-1", I execute the function in gnus-startup-hook), and > pasted the text from scratch-buffer to it, a \201 showed up before the > "ä".

I think that emacs-20.2 is screwing with your characters. This paragraph has been garbled by putting in all those \201 characters. > Well, I think, I should convince the system administrator to install > emacs-20.3 (or the bad way: do it for myself - as suggested before). That seems to be the only fix. I hope that they will do it. -- Colin
