That's a calculus partial derivative symbol, not a delta. To get a delta, type the letter 'd' in the Symbol font in a Carbon app (or in a Cocoa app with the keyboard layout set to Symbol).

lower case is easy, just like in Mac OS classic, option d, b.

PS If this b does not come out as a delta symbol, then
the mailing list stripped it or you mail client cannot deal with Unicode.

Are you serious? It's necessary to change your system preferences just
to type a lousy delta symbol? How many new users are going to figure
that out?
