Hello Shlomi,

(This E-mail message was sent to the Linux-IL mailing list, because I
believe that the topic is of general interest.)

You are right about the problem with the way I send Hebrew E-mail
messages.

I use Evolution, Version 2.0.4 (vanilla Debian Sarge) to send E-mail.
The menu of available encodings (for both sending and receiving E-mail)
omit iso-8859-8-i, so I use only iso-8859-8.  Most of my receipients
seem to have E-mail clients which override this and display it The Right
Way (TM).

The question is how to configure evolution to allow me to select
iso-8859-8-i.  I tried to check for configuration files in ~/.evolution
and in /etc/gconf - but of no avail.

Please notice that for some of my receipients, UTF-8 is not an option.
                                           Thanks,
                                                --- Omer
