Arabic backwards in reply

M

McSwell

Outlook 2007 has a problem when the subject line of a msg is Arabic
and you reply or forward it. Namely, the word order in the subject
line gets reversed in the reply. That is, if the original msg has the
subject line
ÇáÎØ ÇáÚÑÈí Ýí ÇáÅäÊÑäÊ
then when I forward or reply to the msg, the subject line in the
copied email (*inside* my msg, after "Subject:") comes out with the
word order reversed. I just now tried to copy that subject line into
this msg (which I am composing in Firefox), and it came out correct.
Likewise, when I copy the text of the email into Notepad, the order
also comes out correctly. So it appears to be a display problem in
Outlook.

I have my "International Options" set to UTF-8 for both send and
receive in Outlook. For forwarded emails, it is set to "include
original message text"; for replies, it is sent to "Prefix each line
of the original message." And I'm using WindowsXP.
