Today I have a big problem with mail sending.

When I send English text everything is ok; but when I m trying to send Greek text (my work language)

the receiver sees something like that: ??????? ???????? ?????? ?? ?? ? ??

I tried to change the character configuration from unicode to windows (ISO) or Greek but nothing happend.

Please help me because thunderbird it's a very necessary program for me.
