That could be a very nice startup, although an ulpan will probably be a better bet ;-) Anyway, there is the additional problem that there is always the occasional server/router (didn't bother with trying to figure out) that has the tendency to screw up the encoding and destroy the email. Personally, unless its someone I know and is worth the while of working a bit I usually just ignore the Hebrew mail. I just get so little of it that I haven't had the time to bother. > --- Omer > My opinions, as expressed in this E-mail message, are mine alone. > They do not represent the official policy of any organization with which > I may be affiliated in any way. > WARNING TO SPAMMERS: at http://www.zak.co.il/spamwarning.html > > > ================================================================= > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
