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.
