Not sure you're going to get very far with that. I don't think Mystic supports UTF-8 (or any other charset than cp437) messaging just yet. While it supports UTF-8 in some aspects, I'm not sure posting in other charsets is possible at the moment (there is not CHRS kludge at all).

Hebrew (and really, anything other than english) would probably be best in UTF-8, FYI. You could try using the NNTP service, and using an NNTP client that supports it, but if there is no CHRS kludge, nobody can translate it.

Regards,
Nick
