They represent characters not supported by the font used to display the
Subject.  Since the Subject uses the same font as used by the menu and
tool bars, pull-down context menus, and other parts of the mail
application's display windows, you likely need to install the Theme Font
& Size Changer extension from to switch to a font that contains those
characters.  The extension can be found at

Extra characters in subject line

[Ray Davison]

SM 2.39,W7U-64

They are a square outline, enclosing two zeros over two numbers that 
range from zero to nine.  So far they seem to only occur on messages 
that SM has flagged as junk.


What are they?

Emoticons are multi ASCII character combinations. Some Mail User Agents
(Like SeaMonkey) can recognize these and replace them with graphics. The
list of strings the MailNews code (shared with Thunderbird) is hard
coded and can't be extended - without fiddling with the code.

Emoji support just involves installing a font that has support for the
Unicode code points that are mapped to emoji. For example
Segoe-UI-Symbol or Symbola. As far as the Mail User Agent is concerned
emoji are just UTF-8 characters. Support for newer emoji involves just
installing a newer version of the font to the OS.

In newer SeaMonkeys, tapping the ALT key should reveal the menu toolbar
- assuming it is set to autohide.
