Its just boxes here, and I just spent the better part of half an hour trying all the fonts available to kmail, without see anything but variable sizes of twin boxes. Looking at the raw message its also marked transfer content encoding = base64, which I'd assume destroys any semblance of an 8 bit encoding.
