Wrong. The original post is a MIME multipart/alternative, with a text
part and an HTML part. Both contain those "funny chars", which are just
maths italics taken from the mathematical alphanumeric symbol block
of Unicode (U+1D400..U+1D7FF) [1]. So pretty boring standard.

No idea why a Chinese mobile shouldn't be able to display that. As for
the crappy HTML -- what do you expect from some random proprietary mailer
(Aqua mail, AFAICT). They all suck.

Cheers
