so the text isn't roman charcters, but hebrew?

I think what you need to do is work out how to change the characterset of the CDOSYS emailer. No idea how you'd do this, but it's something to look for at least.

thanks-

After hours of searching and posting my problem EVERYwhere I could think of I finally figured it out...

well sort of... I turned my email body into plain text instead of html and presto it jiberish disapeared and I saw Hebrew letters

I know there is code for encoding HTML emails

M.BodyPart.Charset = "windows-1255"
M.HTMLBodyPart.Charset = "Windows-1255"

...but for some strange reason it didn't work for me....
