What happens if you set the E-mail from Hamakor to regular (non-digest)<br>

I receive my E-mail from Hamakor this way, and so far had no problems<br>
with encodings.<br>

1. It does not explicitly declare its encoding.<br>
<br>
2. When my E-mail software is set to default encoding, it reads<br>
correctly the E-mail. Likewise, when the encoding is forced to be<br>
utf-8. When I forced it to use another encoding, the E-mail message<br>
consisted of gibberish.<br>
<br>
Thus, Hamakor's E-mails are encoded in utf-8 but don't explicitly<br>
declare this encoding.<br>
<br>
Therefore I suspect that Mordechai's E-mail by Web provider's default<br>
encoding is different from utf-8, so any E-mail not explicitly declaring<br>
itself to be encoded in utf-8 would be garbled en route.<br>
