I have tried saving it in utf-8 before of course, (without any
buffer-local config and also with), but it produced the same error. I
tried saving in iso-8859-15 because the é would only have one byte then
instead of 2 in utf-8.

How come, that gnus (or whatever) reads user-full-name, whenever I copy
sth. to the X-clipboard?
