Try going into "Tools | Internet Options | Fonts."  Select "Greek" and set it to "Arial Unicode MS" (or whatever polytonic Greek font you have).  I'm wondering though why you continue to speak of IE when I have my options set in Yahoo Mail for UTF-8.  Perhaps you should look at your mail client.

But it does not seem possible to do this globally with
IE7, unless I'm really thick!
I seem to need to do it every time I load up a browser
page.
