FYI it's also good practice to remove signatures when you reply; it confuses "good" mailers if you don't: your reply becomes a very LONG signature (which may be a different, possibly less legible color), and mailers that snip signatures will also snip your reply, rather than correctly quoting it. And since you mentioned evil Outlook, two suggestions: 1. Get Thunderbird. Even if you (like me! ;-)) can't use this for regular e-mail, you can still use news.gmane.org and use it for nothing but this list (or other NNTP groups, of course). 2. Investigate "oe-quotefix". Googling that, or 'outlook PCYMTNQREAIYR' should find it. -- Matthew Will your shell have salvation?
