Two different things, Allie: your earlier proposal was that the quotes
should show the original sender's initial's; what you describe Agent
is doing, is giving you the option to choose a fixed set of characters
as a quote mark, regardless of who the sender is. I don't use Agent;
kindly correct me if I'm mistaken.
And yes, I think it would be nice to be able to change the quote mark
from the standard "greater than" to any character or string you like.
