        No, I haven't seen that. But what, in precise terms, does
        "will not accept" mean? Does your computer beep? Does Emacs
        segfault? Does it get your computer on fire? :-)

        Anyway, try using M-x iso-accents-customize and/or M-x
        standard-display-european. See if they help. I usually have no
        problems because I added some of these in a distant past as
        hooks to the text-mode so that I can use mutt for composing
        emails with everything in Emacs (and I speak portuguese, where
        characters with accents are very important).
