IIUC, the file has the proper encoding. But, when loading it with `insert-file-contents-literally', it doesn't: that's part of the "literally" feature I guess. When loading it with `insert-file-contents', it should work (it does in my case). Here is a way to reproduce that doesn't use org, in case it might help to manully fix your encoding issue: (with-temp-buffer (insert "Lechtenb\303\266rger") (let ((buffer-file-name (make-temp-file "mailtest"))) (save-buffer))) Does it work with your old config (with your old org) ? What kind of failure do you get elsewhere if you let Emacs use the correct encoding (i.e. if you use `insert-file-contents') ? Bruno
