 Hey tony,  maybe this is beyond your control, or maybe you don't care,
 and if not i respect your autonomy in such matters, but your reply
 block punctuation character '|' defeats the very helpful colorization
 of my and many other browsers that use the usual '' character to
 identify reply text.  It makes your letters nearly unreadable.  
 respects, - dan

I use Sylpheed Claws as you do and colours work fine here. You can
define '|' as quotation character in Configuration -- Preferences --
Compose -- Quoting. Just set | as quotation characters and both ''
and '|' will be recognised and properly colourised.

Cheers,
Renat

Thanks !!! I'm a very visual person (useful for things like email ;) )
so that helps enormously.
