I have an email that one of our doctors needs to be able to read, at the moment, it just looks like a load of random characters :

برعايته ويمن عليكم

I think it's arabic, how can i make it display correctly in outlook??

Can't really seem to find much on microsoft site, so thought i'd see if anyone had any ideas?

Cheers

Andy

Sorry for the stupidly obvious, but isn't there a View>Character set drop-down option somewhere? Netscape has it. I've used it for Russian and Korean without problem.
