The results you see would seem to indicate a Unicode char But your mail is not 16 bit and is rendering fine here so hmmm... Have you tried fiddling with $TERM, $LANG, and $LC_ALL? Also try fiddling with $LESSCHARSET which may be the pager man is using. If it is Unicode, you might be in for a long process... I'm kind of interested if you see the same result in a real console, vs. a terminal window under X. ~Jason --
