Not only the email clients, but some OS are not unicode aware yet.
Many people are still running older versions of Windows™ on their computers,
which are not unicode compliant. ...
... Until recently I was running OS 9 on my 11 year old Macintosh, which had
separately installed language packs—the Hebrew which I had installed could
read and write the consonants, but some of the vowels threw it for a loop. ...
... Now it’s running OS X.2 which is better.
I understand that WindowsXP is Unicode aware so you can use it to read
Hebrew, but I don’t know how to use it to type Hebrew.
The latest versions of GNOME and KDE on Linux are unicode aware, at least for
reading. But I haven’t tried them for writing Hebrew. But some people running
Linux prefer using text based shells which are ASCII only.
On the web things are not as clean. From a Macintosh, those versions
requiring a SBL font do not look good in either Camino or Safari browsers. ...
