Stephen,
As I viewed your post to the listserv, there are no subscripts or superscripts coming thorugh in it, just plain text (nor were there in what I had posted earlier, though my tilda in Cañon City came out OK).  Is this the way it appeared to you and to everyone else, too?

When you send email from MS Outlook, you have the option of sending it
s plain text, rich text, or html. When you want to use formatting
ptions such as subscripts or superscripts choose to send the email via
tml. 

int --> If the superscript and subscript buttons do not appear in your
ormatting toolbar, add a button to it and select what you would like,
uch like MS Word.

he problem may lie when you send your email to the listserver. I know
ome mailing lists (mine at the CCFMS included) accept text only and
annot properly interpret the subscript or superscript options.

'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
ubscript

ubject: [Rockhounds] Subscript notations in e-mails

fter re-reading my recent e-mail,and getting Pete's this morning, I 
ealized that the chemical formulas in e-mails would be a lot easier to
ead 
f subscripts were used.
Fe3O4, etc.)

UT, I haven't been able to find an easy way to do this! I can do it in 
ord, but not in Outlook Express.

oes anyone know an easy way to do this?
