I'd assume "or" meant there, rather than "of", it's a common typo. Not sure why 1251, specifically
This is the encoding of Russian Windows. Files and emails in Russia are mostly in cp1251 encoding; something like 60-70%, I think. The second popular encoding is cp866 (Russian DOS); it's used by Windows as OEM encoding.
