To be more precise, I am using Aquamacs 1.1 on OS X 10.4.10 PPC G4. However, I also tried it from the command line using the "-Q" option, which supposedly turns off all the aquamacs-specific stuff, and it still works (correctly identifies file as unicode). Have you added an entry for org files to auto-coding-alist? Perhaps "C-h C" (describe-coding-system") might help you debug it. Look at "Priority order for recognizing coding systems when reading files". Alternatively, maybe your mailer garbled the file when you saved it.
