This may be of some interest. I received an attachment containig a Hebrew Word .doc file. Since I had to read it, I tried an experiment and it worked. Here's what I did. I first opened the file with OpenOffice. This is **not** the Hebrew version being developed, but straight out-of-the box Mandrake 9.0. The Hebrew fonts in the document were OK, but since there's no RTL support, everything was backward. I then cut-and-pasted into KMail's composer (again out-of-the box Mandrake 9.0). And the document was correctly detected as Hebrew - including the correct RTL direction.
BTW - I forwarded the new mail message to someone using Outlook on WindowsXP and the e-mail arrived with the Hebrew displayed correctly. I know this is not an ideal solution for Hebrew, but in an emergency, it works.
