I don't know why it didn't work before. It wasn't the typing that was
the problem, it was when I tried to delete the unwanted text (your
response retained all the original text). When I did it earlier it
completely screwed up the threading.
I still don't know how to change the quote marks to '>'.
I found this, but it doesn't tell me how to do it:
"When displaying quoted plain text messages
Quoted text in a message is text that is being replied to, and is
usually set off from the left margin by the*>*character or a
vertical bar"
Or do I misunderstand your reference to quote (") marks?
I have found this:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Quote_bars
Thunderbird displays a blue vertical bar called a quote bar instead of a
'>' in quoted text in HTML messages. The '>' is still stored in the
message, its just displayed differently by Thunderbird. If you want to
disable this feature and display quoted text using '>' characters either
install theQuote Colors extension
<https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/addon/170>and disable "Graphical
Quoting" in its options dialog or put the following code in your
"userContent.css <http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserContent.css>" and
"prefs.js <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Prefs.js_file>" files, respectively.
Cheers,
