A minor rant: I think nobody should use Supercite and its "TL> " or
"Teemu> " quoting. As everybody knows the de facto standard is "> "
(with nesting) and it's the most widely supported style. People are used
to read nestes >'s so it's the easiest style to read and understand. If
you (general "you") want to write messages for other people (not just
for yourself or for other limited audience) then please use the standard
and forget about all weird custom stuff.

There are some groups of people who tend to use bad quotations:
Microsoft Outlook users, Gmail users, Emacs Rmail and Supercite users.
