Thanks!

What mu4e-compose-cite-function should I be using with this?

The citation remaind as per defaults until I defined:

(setq mu4e-compose-cite-function 'message-insert-formatted-citation-line)

But then the inserted citation differs from the specified 
message-citation-line-format:

From: Test user
To: Me, Other Recipients
Cc: Third Party
Subject: The Subject
Flags: seen, attach
Date: 2014-08-25T09:47:42-0700
Maildir: /work/INBOX
Attachments: [1]image1.jpg(16.9K), [2]image2.png(3.1K),

My configuration, Using el-get:

(:name mu4e
  :after (progn
  ...
  (setq message-yank-prefix "")
  (setq message-yank-cited-prefix "")
  (setq message-yank-empty-prefix "")
  (setq message-indentation-spaces 4)
  (setq message-cite-reply-position 'above)
  (setq message-citation-line-format
        (concat
         "-----Original Message-----\n"
         "From: %N\n"
         "Sent: %x %X\n\n"))
  (setq mu4e-compose-cite-function 'message-insert-formatted-citation-line)
  ...))

Thanks,
Jeff
