My address is GMail, and I just use Chrome. Responding to this list
requires me to Ctrl-A and then remove ALL formatting which inserts
the greater than symbol.

For 99% of my life no one cares about how an email response is
formatted. The only place that complains is this list so I do all of
that above to try to make it better for the list.

Maybe I made a mistake on the recent response that Frank
doesn't like? If it's happening on every email I send then what
Frank is seeing is not what I'm seeing.

In my experience it's easier to ride the Google horse in the
direction the Google horse is going. Turning off all formatting
causes too many problems in real life outside of Gentoo
email lists.

My apologies,
Mark
