   ...but assuming you *want* to read it, go to an online translation site; I   
   use Google:   
     http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en   
      
   Copy the email text from the email to the big box on that page and then   
   select the languages to translate to and from.   
      
   If you don't know the language you're translating from, there's an option for   
   Google to guess the language: click the "Translate" button in the "Translate   
   text" section, then on the next page, select From: Detect language. (The more   
   text, the better.)
