What does Emacs tell you if you type "M-: buffer-file-coding-system RET" in the buffer where you compose such problematic email messages, the ones that mix iso-8859-1 and iso-8859-15 characters and end up being encoded in iso-2022-jp? Anyway, I'm beginning to think that maybe this is some bug in VM. Did you consider asking on the VM mailing list? > in my .emacs file. But it didn't solve the problem. Maybe there is a > mistake or a shortcoming in the vm-pakage.

But I asked you to try to remove from your .emacs everything that is not required to us VM per se. Did you try that?
