Later .....

I've contacted the developer about this and here's what he had to say:

"Depends on the message content and the specified message charset :-)

And he also has to configure an appropriate font in the windows
console, e.g. "Lucida Console".

Here on the Continent we probably have more UTF-8 encoded messages
than in GB or in USA, and I think I've pulled the maximum of UTF-8
functionality out of OpenXP (which internally still work with MS-DOS
Codepage 437 in many areas, as it's roots were in the MS-DOS era of
the early nineties).

Maybe he can forward the problematic message to me."

Over to you
