That's strange.  In my case, none of Pegasus, Becky, EMClient,
Mailbird among others will display text quoted in Thunderbird
with clear segments (not merely indented).  For me.  But they do all handle The 
Bat quoted text quite
well.

Yes I do keep registered copies of all those, among others, around.  In the
case of Pegasus, it was a voluntary contribution.

Because, you see, I am not a fan of the common expectation that
programmers should be willing to work for free.  Even if some are.
