Yes, but it is generally preferred to use ASCII in Usenet. If you really want to use math symbols, you can copy-paste them into the editor (which will probably tell you that it's going to use UTF-8 instead when sending) or you can set up your keyboard to generate those symbols. -- Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it. -- Donald E.

ASCII will do. Too bad though. I have some equations to question written in math symbols. It would save some work to just copy them into a message.
