I wonder if you are actually encountering this issue with Thunderbird: x circumflex 2 (* where you use the ^ operator! *) prints using normal superscript notation, which looks great until you copy and paste it into Mathematica, when it comes out as x2. If this is your actual problem, a partial solution is to view the message source and copy and paste from that. David Bailey http://www.dbaileyconsultancy.co.uk
