[Rockhounds] Subscript notations in e-mails

[CCFMS Web Admin]

When you send email from MS Outlook, you have the option of sending it
as plain text, rich text, or html. When you want to use formatting
options such as subscripts or superscripts choose to send the email via
html. 
 
Hint --> If the superscript and subscript buttons do not appear in your
formatting toolbar, add a button to it and select what you would like,
much like MS Word.
 
The problem may lie when you send your email to the listserver. I know
some mailing lists (mine at the CCFMS included) accept text only and
cannot properly interpret the subscript or superscript options.
 
I'll put my theory to the test with the following line of text:
 
"My car is comprised of two yds3 of Fe3O4" This is superscript. This is
subscript

Subject: [Rockhounds] Subscript notations in e-mails
 
After re-reading my recent e-mail,and getting Pete's this morning, I 
realized that the chemical formulas in e-mails would be a lot easier to
read 
if subscripts were used.
(Fe3O4, etc.)
 
BUT, I haven't been able to find an easy way to do this! I can do it in 
Word, but not in Outlook Express.
 
Does anyone know an easy way to do this?
 
Larry
