How did you reply? Did you set the default to HTML? I haven't, my default is MicroEd,

this reply.


After reading some of the messages it would appear that the blue line is the equivalent of the quotation character (>). I say this because if someone quotes already quoted text that has been replied to that has the blue line, you get a second blue line to its right.


This said, it is very clumsy the way it works. I can "break" into the quoted text

but if try marking text and it goes too far, then the whole lot of quoted text is selected. Also there are issues with the sig-dash being recognised when replying.



I get the wider blue line in the paragraph starting with "How did you reply," and I get the narrow blue line in the text following that.


Can you articulate a better way to show the "1st generation" and "second generation" quoted sections?  Or can you tell us how another mail program might show it?  I don't mind what we have here, but I wonder how other programs might show the same.
