This confirms that the charset you declared is indeed a superset
of ASCII.

"postconf -b" just stuffs the raw bits down your terminal, so this
just means that your terminal charset matches the encoding of Danish
characters in the file. What is your "$LANG" environment variable
set to? It may also be helpful to post any related "LC_*" variables.

This almost certainly means that the characters in the template
file are encoded in a charset different from the one you declared
in the template and identical to the one supported by your terminal,
editor program, ...
Frequently these days, that charset is utf-8.
