You're using plain text, as is he, the issue is the non-standard
characters and the character encoding set you're using. Plain text
is not a single thing.
In Mail this is set in Preferences > Composing, there's a dropdown
list offering Plain Text or Rich Text. Under the Format menu there's
a selection Make Rich Text if your default is Plain Text and vice
versa.
This is odd. Doing get info on a file, and changing what program
opens it should change all of those permanently, when you press the
Change all it should 'stick'.
However, also, OS X distinguishes between afile.jpg, afile.JPG,
afile.jpeg and afile that happens to be a jpeg without extension. So
if there are a variety of extensions, you may need to do it more
than once.

It is apparently a problem with how Mail displays (and forwards) some
characters. My original message worked fine from Eudora to Eudora.
Not-equal works fine from Mail to Eudora.
