--- Comment #2 from Tony Houghton <h at realh.co.uk> ---
I've sent you an example of an email that displays incorrectly. Not all Amazon
messages have this problem. The "good" ones have text as well as html, specify
UTF-8 in the html head and use £

The "bad" ones are HTML-only and use £ signs. If I save the HTML and load it
into a text editor (gvim or one based on gtksourceview) it shows plain £ signs,
so I suspect that Amazon's £ signs are UTF-8 contrary to what it says in the
html head, and the other browsers/viewers are silently correcting a common
error.
