When trying to send a mail with VM which could be encoded in
iso-8859-15, i.e. when the the mail contains German umlauts äöüßÄÜÖ
and the Euro symbol €, VM 7.19 running under GNU Emacs 21.3.1 uses
charset=unknown for the outgoing mail.
The reason is that there is no entry for "iso-8859-15" in
vm-mime-mule-charset-to-charset-alist in vm-vars.el:
(defvar vm-mime-mule-charset-to-charset-alist
'(
(latin-iso8859-1 "iso-8859-1")
(latin-iso8859-2 "iso-8859-2")
(latin-iso8859-3 "iso-8859-3")
(latin-iso8859-4 "iso-8859-4")
(cyrillic-iso8859-5 "iso-8859-5")
(arabic-iso8859-6 "iso-8859-6")
(greek-iso8859-7 "iso-8859-7")
(hebrew-iso8859-8 "iso-8859-8")
(latin-iso8859-9 "iso-8859-9")
(japanese-jisx0208 "iso-2022-jp")
(korean-ksc5601 "iso-2022-kr")
(chinese-gb2312 "iso-2022-jp")
(sisheng "iso-2022-jp")
(thai-tis620 "iso-2022-jp")
)
"Alist that maps MULE character sets to matching MIME character sets.")
The attached patch fixes the problem.
The patch also adds iso-8859-15 in two other places as well, to fix
the problem Egbert Eich <eich at suse.de> (CC:) is encountering, adding
it to vm-mime-mule-charset-to-charset-alist is enough.
But adding iso-8859-15 in the other two places is probably also
useful.
