*That* one (cmd-opt-") I *didn't* know about, and am very glad to find it. As for the > marks, they aren't a wintel product necessarily: this very self-same Mac would show them on all quoted email text (no matter what program or computer generated it -- all that's needed is to switch to Outlook (maybe some other programs too, but Outlook is the only one I'm familiar with) and there they would be. To get rid of them individually all you have to do is select and delete -- but AFAIK to strip the lot it's necessary (in Outlook) to copy into a word processor and use the replace function. Being able to do find-and-replace directly is certainly a feature in Mail's favor.

I'll give WordService a try.

I know that the ">" gets displayed in "Mail" as a vertical bar, however sometimes when an email has forwarded through WINTEL machines a number of times, there are "grater than" placeholders that don't show up in "Mail" as a bar.

I don't use "Outlook" any longer because Micro-Poop has stopped all development and will no longer fix problems. SOoooo I don't use it any more.

I will be one of the first to admit that "OS X" "Mail" a number of shortcomings, like you can not change the page color, even-though the menu lets you chose a "Document Color" it just doesn't happen. Also emails that arrive with animation don't work any more if you forward them to someone else.

I have a friend that if I forward email to her, she doesn't even see the XXX.jpg files that I send, but I'm sure that part of that problem is her ISP! I can not understand why anyone would want to stay with AOL when there are so many low-cost ISP.

As a second source I use "Thunderbird" for mail and "Firefox" for a browser.

Let me know what you think of WordService, and did you get MailScripts? If you can't find MailScripts let me know and I'll find the link.
