Apostrophes received as question marks when sending from apple mail

Hi,

I'm using a Mac Air, OSX 10.9.2.

I've configured Mail to work with my gmail account.


When sending emails adn using apostrophes (e.g. We're, they're, it's) the recipient (on a windows machine running Outlook) sees all the apostrophes as question marks.


Any ideas on settings? Rich Text vs Plain Text doesn't addres the issue.


Cheers

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

So I saw on another thread to turn of Smart Quotes under:


System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Text


Uncheck "Use Smart quotes and dashes"


That seems to have solved my problem for my messages.
