If the >>>s aren't a standard, they are at least a widely supported convention. I don't think I remember using a mail client that didn't use them, and it must be five years since I used one that didn't colour different levels of quotation differently. If people don't quote clearly, quote so much text that there's no new content on the screen when I load the email, or top-post or otherwise show themselves unwilling to provide me with context, I tend not to read their emails. I don't suppose most people consider that too much of a loss ;) Rich _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
