Out of curiosity, what character encoding are you using in your mail 
program?  You may want to use UTF-8 for wider compatibility.

Since I use all of those libraries, I tried that assignment, and it 
worked fine.

I hesitate to ask this, but did you remember to set the User Keyboard 
(flag -62 set)?, by pressing LS-ALPHA LS-ALPHA?  Key assignments only 
work when you've done that.  Do you have other assignments that DO work?

If that's the trouble, may I suggest you make or add to your STARTUP 
program, /<< -62 SF />>, which will turn on the user keyboard whenever 
your calculator is reset.  (If you don't already have a variable called 
STARTUP in your home directory, you just STO that program (with whatever 
additional stuff you like) to 'STARTUP'.)
