I haven't seen that yet, but then I haven't been looking for it, either. 
In any case, I think I resolved the problem. Since I had only been 
viewing the message with PocketKnife Peek, I had not been seeing the 
unicode characters from it's original language, only question marks in 
their place. When viewing the message in Outlook it looks like this:

Уникальная возможность всего за неделю...

and so on. Russian or Eastern European, I'm guessing.(If you don't view 
this message in unicode, you won't see what I pasted above, but perhaps 
question marks or something else instead). Hence, the filter on question 
marks doesn't catch it.
