from Suse 10.3 german letters apear e.g. as Mär instead of Mär.
How can I fix this?
Regards, Astrid

Clean up your .emacs file by removing anything related to language
environments and encodings. In particular stuff like
standard-display-european or such.

(I haven't received the original message at this time.)
Note that there are multiple possible representations of the letter ä.
The problem here is that the file has been saved as UTF-8, but is
interpreted as Latin-1.
Check if your OS is configured to use UTF-8. You can do that by typing
"locale" into a terminal, it should say something like:
LANG="de_DE.UTF-8"

Start by telling us what is displayed in the *Help* buffer when you type
`C-h v major-mode' and then `C-h C'.
