This is what it looks like to me on Gmail:

It's equally bad in XEmacs.

I think it's probably something to do with the Charset: UTF-8
encoding, and I'm afraid that it's my client(s) that is to blame for
not rendering UTF8 properly.  However, would appreciate a confirmation
one way or the other -- is the mail format incorrect, or is the client
rendering it incorrectly or is it some other problem altogether, e.g.
an intermediate server mangling the message?
