Were did you find that? That is a 4-byte/32-bit character:

Thank goodness it doesn't even display on my box (except in your e-mail, looks like a little feather on a box of something...)
That's beyond the normal C handling of UTF-8, but would require wchar_t to process.
Thunderbird handles it just fine. Even Alpine handles it, with some quirks if I remember. Of course, in the Subject header it goes differently: Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?Re:_[opensuse]_Curious_issue_with_Seamonkey_[=f0=9f=8c=8a?= =?UTF-8?Q?]?= Email systems can not handle UTF-8 directly.
Okay,
Found it: Water Wave
Yes. Of course I don't use them in email, I just inserted one in order to test the issue James noticed in Seamonkey. Those chars do exist, so so they can be used and software mush handle them. I wonder about the printer! [...] It went just fine, printing from Thunderbird. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
