If you were running under Linux I would suggest

lang mess de_DE.UTF-8

but beware that the placement of this command before or after not only
":set enc=utf-8" but also ":filetype [plugin] [indent] on" and ":syntax
on" (and the relative placement of these) makes a difference.

Under Windows I'm less sure; maybe something like

lang mess German_Germany.10646

Same caveats as above about command ordering.

Best regards,
Tony.
