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'.)
