HOw can I use Russian (Cyrillic) characters for email in Outlook?
Kurt,
I am having exactly the same problem and didn't seem to be able to find any clear reference to it in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. If you find the answer, please send me the info to . I am looking forward to your reply. Igor "Kurt" wrote: I would like to be able to compose and send, and to receive, emails containing Cyrillic (Russian) characters. Outlook 2000 seems to strip them and turn them into some other code even though I can type in Russian to start with because I have Russian language support installed. Also, typically if I view emails sent to me that were composed in Russian, even when they reside on a POP server and I am viewing with IE, the characters are not Russian but gibberish. Is there a way to enable Outlook to properly encode, and properly receive, Cyrillic text? |

Igor--
I have learned how. In Format, there are two parts that are essential. You must select "Plaint Text"; and for Encoding it appears you must select Cyrillic (KOI8-R). Also, of course, you must have a Russian "keyboard" installed for Windows. I find that IF I begin a New Message, then immediately check to be sure I have Plain Text selected, AND I immediately select Encoding set for Cyrillic, the Cyrillic text is preserved.
