Steve,

My e-mail client is Unicode aware (and apparently yours is too, if  
you're seeing the Hebrew characters). I use Mac OS X ... I just  
change to a Hebrew keyboard, type it in, then switch back to an  
American keyboard for the rest.

You might check the archives of the list ... we had a discussion  
about the (de)merits of Unicode in posts some time back. Not  
everybody has Unicode-aware mail readers at this point.
