No, I get the gibberish too. Looking at the message headers, it appears that it was sent without an explicit charset, which my mailreader interprets as Windows-1252 (odd, since I'm on Linux...maybe it's a concession to all the defective Outlook-produced email out there?). I'm not sure what the intended charset was, however...I tried changing it to UTF-8, UTF-7, ISO-8859-7 (ISO-Greek), Windows -1253, and MacGreek, and all of them had gibberish for the "Greek" characters.
