@vindex sendmail-coding-system
When you send a mail message (@pxref{Sending Mail}),
Emacs has four different ways to determine the coding system to use
for encoding the message text. It tries the buffer's own value of
for encoding the message text. It first tries the buffer's own value of
@code{buffer-file-coding-system}, if that is non-@code{nil}.
Otherwise, it uses the value of @code{sendmail-coding-system}, if that
is non-@code{nil}. The third way is to use the default coding system
for new files, which is controlled by your choice of language
@c i.e., default-sendmail-coding-system
environment, if that is non-@code{nil}. If all of these three values
are @code{nil}, Emacs encodes outgoing mail using the Latin-1 coding
system.
@c FIXME? Where does the Latin-1 default come in?
is non-@code{nil}. Thirdly, it uses the value of
@code{default-sendmail-coding-system}.
If all of these three values are @code{nil}, Emacs encodes outgoing
mail using the default coding system for new files (i.e., the
default value of @code{buffer-file-coding-system}), which is
controlled by your choice of language environment.
