Can you send me the raw message source of such a message? If the message
is still present on the server, you can get it by retrieving the message
with Apple Mail, then choose the file / save as menu, and select the
"raw message source" format; or you can usually get the raw source if
you have a webmail access to this account.

Do you also get this error if you set your preferences to a different font?

Osaka is defined in the preferences as the font to use for the japanese
script (you can define a different font for each script).
