Ahm... Sorry to disagree, but there are no such things in the message I
have sent you.
The behavior you describe seems to be related to the in-line display of
the attached messages.
Please save them locally as files and view them with a text editor.
The messages contain:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1251; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
Charset: windows-1251
Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD)

... empty line...
... encrypted and encoded contents...
