Indeed it does and welcome to TBBETA. :=)

Well, you can either do it globally via the account properties default
reply template properties or you can do it selectively with the
%Quotestyle macro.

Firstly, the %Quotestyle macro *must* precede the %quotes macro in your
reply template. If you place it after the %quotes macro, it will not
work.

The next, is that to produce initials, you use "I", i.e.,
%QUOTESTYLE="I"

See the help on this:

QUOTESTYLE=”expression” - specify the quotation sign prefix used after
                        this macro. Expression can be any of the following:

                        NONE - use an empty prefix (a standard)
                        I - use initials of the sender of the original message

                        IF - use the first initial of the sender of the
                             original message

                        N - use the full name of the sender of the original message
                        F - use the first name of the sender of the original message
                        L - use the last name of the sender of the original message
                        =text - use the “text” as the prefix, e.g. %QUOTESTYLE=”=-|”
