mu4e use the gnus/message machinery for citing, which allows for all
kinds of styles, including the one that Outlook uses; see
mu4e-compose-cite-function
and then the various way to configure it,
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/message/Insertion-Variables.html
This should give you a start:
(setq
message-yank-prefix ""
message-yank-cited-prefix ""
message-yank-empty-prefix ""
message-indentation-spaces 4
message-cite-reply-position 'above
message-citation-line-format
(concat
"-----Original Message-----\n"
"From: %N\n"
"Sent: %x %X\n\n"))
Cheers,
Dirk.
