Leaving the meaning aside, my question is: how can I write this in
Thunderbird? 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.
Tommaso,
I don't know what you see in Thunderbird, but I can assure you that in
gmail your formula is barely legible. Wouldn't it be easier to
"typeset" it in ascii?
Cheers,

I'm using Thunderbird (on Windows) and the formulas display nicely.

Seamonkey 2.25 on Windows displays the element and multiply characters
but no subscripting occurs (I assume 'j1/j2' should be subscript).
Thankfully, an integrated LaTex-to-MathML input box will arrive for
Thunderbird in v31 and Seamonkey in v2.28 [1]. Grab a nightly build if
you want to test-drive.
Tommaso, you may be interested right now in the TB addons 'MathML-fonts'
or 'Equations'. The description for Equations is: "An extension that
allows you to type in complex equations into your e-mail and have the
text converted into LaTeX-rendered graphics. Enclose all equations in $$
and then click the convert button! (E.g. $$Area = \pi * r^2$$)" You
might also search for 'MathBird' or 'TexZilla'.

P.S. There are anecdotal reports web clients like Gmail and Zimbra
filter MathML, thus rendering formulas incorrectly.
