Not your fault.

John's Outlook Express 6 sent his message with the following parameters 
(I've omitted the irrelevant parts):

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Seven-bit encoding will always convert Cyrillic to question marks, and 
the information is cannot be recovered at the receiving end.

I have no idea why OE decided that this message required only Western 
encoding, and 7-bit to boot -- I don't use the program. Sorry.
