On 10.9.1 (I don't have 10.6) I do see it with TextEdit:
Copy the text from this eMail into a TextEdit window
use Edit → Special Characters... to change 盧 back to CJK COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH-F933
Select all
Set the font to Heiti SC Light
copy and paste into another rich TextEdit window
Kind regards,
Gerriet.
