No, I think the situation is much less grimm. I was reading your last mail with 
a webmail
client which replaced the unknown emoji characters (not in the font I use for 
reading) with
those substitute characters. So what you probably got back in the reply body 
was a properly
encoded substitute character. I wouldn't use emojis as a typical use case for 
unicode ...
(just tested with my iPad and the emojis display correct).

Thanks a lot! Word encoding seems to work now. And even so my humble emacs 
can't display emojis I
appreciate your reference to the original context :-)

Cheers, RalfD
