The above tip, plus the iconv manpage fixed the problem. I added the -c
option to the iconv invocation:
Options controlling conversion problems:
-c When this option is given, characters that cannot be
converted are silently discarded, instead of leading to
a conversion error.
and this allowed the problem emails to render correctly.
