As noted, you need to figure this out, we can't. Are the characters in this other 'available' file? Or in the source file after the transfer? Or only there after you cat the two together? How exactly are you "importing the file from remote location"? How exactly are you doing the concatena...

There's nothing special I'm aware of that you need to do. Can you check with whomever administers your server / email, see what they think?
