What happens if you set the E-mail from Hamakor to regular (non-digest) mode? I receive my E-mail from Hamakor this way, and so far had no problems with encodings.
>From inspection of the headers of an E-mail message which I received from [email protected]: 1. It does not explicitly declare its encoding. 2. When my E-mail software is set to default encoding, it reads correctly the E-mail. Likewise, when the encoding is forced to be utf-8. When I forced it to use another encoding, the E-mail message consisted of gibberish. Thus, Hamakor's E-mails are encoded in utf-8 but don't explicitly declare this encoding. Therefore I suspect that Mordechai's E-mail by Web provider's default encoding is different from utf-8, so any E-mail not explicitly declaring itself to be encoded in utf-8 would be garbled en route. --- Omer On Sat, 2011-06-25 at 21:45 +0300, Mordecha Behar wrote: > I just got another digest email from Hamakor, and once again it is > full of question marks. > This usually means that a different encoding is being used. > However, my browser (and hence email client) is using Unicode (UTF 8). > When I tried viewing in various encodings (Hebrew IBM 862, Hebrew > Windows 1255, Hebrew ISO 8859-8 and 8859-8-1)I still just got question > marks. > So, what encoding is Hamakor using to send these emails?
