This is not Rita's fault. You are sending them incorrectly.

Your messages come in as plain ASCII:

	Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

and they do have these ASCII sequences in it:

	(&#40664;&#38647;/&#2344;&#2367;&#2358;&#2348;&#2381;&#2342;&#2327;&#2352;&#2381;&#2332;/&#1606;&#1588;&#1576;&#1583;&#1711;&#1585;&#1580;)

It is entirely correct for an email client to show these characters just like that. No interpretation is supposed to be performed.

You need to configure your email client to use UTF-8 instead of ASCII if you want Unicode chars in it. You appear to be using a web mailer running SquirrelMail. SquirrelMail can be configured to use UTF-8. Possibly you need to contact the iPage.com support team for that. 

HTH,
