I agree that this is the right approach in principle. Unfortunately, both Outlook/Explorer and Thunderbird/Mozilla already interpret MIME content types differently in mail and web. I think the best solution is: - Don't send/post Hebrew in visual order. - Don't label anything with MIME content-type iso-8859-8. If everybody adhered to these guidelines (regardless of how they display material and what they do internally on their systems), the problem would die out. -Ron. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
