Hmm...? > Here's how it's displayed in Emacs: Oh, you two were talking about the original screenshot presented in this bug? I was talking about the last one, where I cannot see any wide characters, only octal escapes. So yes, in that original screenshot some characters are wider than 1 column. But shouldn't the Lisp program which produces this display take the character widths into account? Failing that, I don't see how this could be fixed, because no single font could support too many scripts, and if the user reads email in many different languages, they will eventually bump into some script which needs a different font.
