Emmm ... no. But I have no influence on encoding - there seems to be
some "smart" algorithm behind gmail, which tries to guess which
encoding to use. Usually it takes ascii or utf-8, but apparently it
sometimes favors other encodings for some reason :(

Thanks a lot. It has made my day :)

However, your example worked OK, but
    \definemathsymbol    [≤] [rel] [sy] ["14]
    \definemathsymbol    [·] [bin] [sy] ["01]
didn't

Thanks,

(čšž - hopefully gmail will choose utf-8 now :)
