OK that worked
my marvosym.sty is newer than yours, might there be the problem?
here is how the particular part of my marvosym.sty looks like (note that
original it was "\Telefon..." I changed it so g-brief would work into
"\Telefone...")
\newcommand\Kutline{\mvchr{82}}
\newcommand\Leftscissors{\mvchr{83}}
\newcommand\Telefone{\mvchr{84}}
\newcommand\Clocklogo{\mvchr{85}}
\newcommand\Checkedbox{\mvchr{86}}
\newcommand\Anglesign{\mvchr{87}}
here follows the complete latex protocol output:
