Hello Ryszard,
I see the above characters perfectly in Emacs, but I cannot paste them
into a terminal (GNOME terminal, mlterm or other) even when using
utf-8-unix as the clipboard/X-selection encoding, as at least some
seem to be mistaken for control characters of some kind. I am
not sure what coding Gnus is using to display the email for me.

Sorry, I cannot help here.

No, these are Korean (Kangul), Chinese (Big5) and Japanese (JIS)
encoding systems. If you go to Options/Mule/Show all of Mule Status
you will get a list of the various installed character sets, their
shortlisted names and examples of text.
HTH,
Gernot
