X-Newsreader: Forte Agent 4.2/32.1118
Since your OS appears to be Win because of your newsagent and since your
context seems to be a plaintext news message because that's where you
are presently communicating, you can hold down the alt key and input
0176 on the numeric keypad and release the alt key
degree °
That symbol is called ring or degree and it is an extended ascii or ansi
character. In a 7 bit ascii environment it doesn't work.
If the environment you want to use (or print/display) the character or
the OS is something else, then you have to present your premise more
clearly.

A week ago I used Alt + 0186. What's that?
