Sorry, I completely forgot this thread. I found a solution.It wasn't the umlauts, I think. The Name of the recipient was set in quotationmarks - "Die studentischen Hilfskräfte" - and that got double-quoted - like ""Die studentischen Hilfskräfte"" - and it seems that caused the problem. I changed the Name in Users to Die studentischen Hilfskräfte without quotationmarks and it's working fine now.

Oh neat!  Thanks for following up and letting us know what you found.I'll mark this thread as resolved and close it.
