Olin - I don't use Outlook or Outlook Express but was wondering: does
    your email client have a technique to manually add the "> " to the
    front of the quoted lines?  The reason I ask is that I thought that
    capability was standard on all email clients.

Personally, I do the selection, reformatting, and "quoting" of the mail I'm
responding to all manually (with some editor macro help, sometimes), and
consider it to be part of the "discipline" of answering email.  If this
isn't worth doing, perhaps either the message or my response is unimportant.
But then my email setup is rather anachronistic anyway, and I'm not an
expert or frequent responder to esoteric PIC questions (except perhaps
when they touch on a larger philosophical issue :-)


Of course, this is exactly Olin's point; if you want quick and accurate
responses, for free, from net-experts, perhaps you SHOULD make replying to
your message as convenient as possible.  Olin has strong opinions about what
that means for HIS mail clients, others are less constrained.  So it makes
sense to aim for the format that the people complaining are asking for.
At least if those are people who tend to give good answers to questions...
