No problem, Bill. Your last comment below reminded me of another very annoying issue that still upsets me greatly. It's absolutely atrocious that we still haven't addressed the issue of special characters properly in the last versions of MIME. By golly, isn't it about time that it starts accepting AT LEAST, at a minimum, ALL special characters of Western civilizations??? This really infuriates me!
Also, it's utterly unacceptable that they do not tackle the superscript/subscript issue, either. How long will we still have to wait till computers catch up with us, humans?... :-( NOTE: And not that it would be so terribly difficult to implement such changes...
