Emacs by default distinguishes between é in iso-8859-1 and é in
iso-8859-15.  Suppose your keyboard produces the iso-8859-15
character and you reply to a message which contains the iso-8859-1
character.  Then all kinds of strange things might happen.

You might wish to investigate ucs-tables.el and utf-8.el.  A suitable
version of ucs-tables.el can be found in the Oort Gnus contrib
directory; not sure where to find utf-8.el.
