 Sylpheed seems to add the Re: and thus cuts off the text at the
beginning of the subject. I don`t see where the Re: can be disabled.
Personally, I don`t like the addition of Re:

 As per your question, I think we`ve seen enough. People who prefer
to communicate in Hebrew would simply use the tools that handle it
properly, such as systems that support FTN<->nntp+utf8

 Wrt to the subject line, users would quickly learn to keep the
subject line short.

 So.. the fault is not FTN per se. FTN was built to support an
English-speaking community. And as you have discovered, just supporting utf-8 is not
enough espectially if the the requirement is to support languages that
typically require writing/reading right-to-left.
