If you need the aesthetics, you're stuck emailing it as an attachment anyway.Forget about beauty, this is about functionality and convenience: copying from LyX (trunk), I can send you this (I hope you can display it correctly, at least it shows up OK while I'm composing it): * For each hosts pair ( j 1 , j 2 ) ?

The only way is to attach the .lyx document, or an export of it, and it takes just more time to do that, rather than copy/paste.

FWIW, it is perfect here in Thunderbird. Richard
