Why did you use visual-hebrew for messages?
We have enough problems from visual hebrew html. Let's keep it out of our
mail system...
(There is an Israeli standard here, which I never bothered checking)

Ahem... The previous message had charset iso8859-8, as it should be
(right? at least good enough for my pine). But this one had charset=ascii,
which means 7bit characters only. Thus no hebrew characters allowed.
Therefore they appear as '?'

No need to give-in that easily...
I use 'biditext xterm -e pine'
One interesting thing to try:
last time I tried 'biditext kedit' (with kde 2.0) I noticed that kedit
seems to refresh the current line on each character I type (not only the
new character). This means that this biditext'ed kedit was almost a
logical-hebrew text editor.
While I believe that this is basically a bug, and may have been corrected
later (unnecessary writes to the display. This may cause flickering on
very long paragraphs. Haven't checked this much) it may be useful.
If kmail shares the same behaviour then running
biditext kmail
may gve you a semi-logical hebrwe mail client (although I believe you'll
want to also set LC_MESSAGES to 'C', as hebrew menu items etc. will show
up reversed).
