Font Issue: Macs and Yahoo Messenger

Post by christophershelt »

To One and All--
There may very well be no satisfactory answer to this. Does anyone know if it is possible, with a Mac, to send Greek font code through Yahoo Messenger? Our group uses Yahoo Messenger for chats and up until now all of our members have used Windows and IBM-compatible PCs. Now, we have a member with a Mac and nothing she sends is relayed without boxes on our end. She sends Unicode, Unicorn, Sapho-keys, and God knows what else...it always looks good on her end, but doesn't make it through Yahoo Messenger.
Usually, with Yahoo Messenger, any font that the group shares--which every member has installed--will show up on the screen. But, something happens with Mac-generated code. Any suggestions? Thanking you in advance.
