It's not that it doesn't work (and you can even set it to "% " easily enough :-) but that modifying the original message by line-quoting it will mess up the spell checker's ability to skip over that part. % % For example, I just got a message from her in response to the one where % I try to explain how to quote, and her replies were all quoted to the % same depth as mine: no way to tell who wrote what. In fact, my message % and her reply were all one big paragraph. I think your later analysis of her sending in HTML or RTF is accurate. You should check, however, your PGP settings. In my experience, LookOut! will not quote a MIME-signed body because it thinks it isn't text (and yet it somehow knows enough to put it into the message body for reply!). % % -- % Rob 'Feztaa' Park % [EMAIL PROTECTED] % -- % Microsoft - because God hates us.
