rusi, whatever program you are using to read these posts is buggy.
Nicholas (please excuse me ASCII-fying his name, but given that we are
discussing encoding problems, it is probably for the best) sent his post
with a header line:
charset=ISO-8859-7
If your client honoured that charset line, you would see:
Eυχή του Ιησού.mp3
It looks like your client is ignoring the charset header, and
interpreting the bytes as Latin-1 when they are actually ISO-8859-7.
py> s = 'Eυχή του Ιησού.mp3'
py> print(s.encode('ISO-8859-7').decode('latin-1'))
Eõ÷Þ ôïõ Éçóïý.mp3
which matches what you see. If you can manually tell your client to use
ISO-8859-7, you should see it correctly.
