30 different digrams?

I don't get it - the description says there are 26 letters used. But I get 30 different digrams if I analyze the ciphertext. How can be 4 digrams mapped? Is it upper case? I assume yes, because the description also says the text is in "correct case". But then we have (26*2)^2 different possibilities, don't we?

The question says:
"The message [...] is written with correct case and punctuation."
so you can have 2*26 plus some special chars.
