Any idea why I would be seeing this? Apparently, when I send the
recipient's see strange characters such as these as well. Is it an
encoding issue, d'ya think?
Yes, it is character encoding.
If the message is sent using UTF-8 as the encoding and you force it to
display as ISO-8859-1 you will indeed get what you show above.
Also, if a message is sent using "onerous" (with the punctuation mark
used in the article) as iso-8859-1 you will see what you show. In
that case, you can force UTF-8 as the charset and it will display
properly.
So if messages are sent using an encoding that you are not this will
happen? Crud, how do you get around /that/?
