Do You mean in this email discussion?
The most people here are just using NO SPECIFIC FONT.

Hebrew here is either coded using the CCAT scheme (i.e. in
plain ascii) so that You don't actually see any hebrew
(i.e. You have to "decode" it by yourself)
or the hebrew is encoded throught the "unicode".

If You have problem reading email's in unicode,
your OS/mail reader is likely to be either outdated
or your fonts are misconfigured.

P.S. Example of hebrew in unicode:

consonants:
 בראשית ברא אלהים

+vowels:
 בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים

+vowels+accents:
 בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים
