Thank you for your explanation.  It was very helpful and I appreciate
it.  I'm a little more calm about it.  i guess I just ahve to decide
which editor I want to use.

For the Windows editor that you mentioned above, try this and tell me
if it works:
--start a new email message (make sure it's in the Windows editor
mode)

--copy a paragraph of text from somewhere else (internet, etc.)

--Go back to the email, and right-click and "paste as quotation"

You will see that the even thought the text gets pasted with the ">"
symbol, the color doesn't automatically change to the quote color
setting.  Now if you do the same in Microed, the color changes
immediately (very nice).  If it were not for that and other other
similar coloring issues, I'd probably just use teh Windows editor.

But you're explanation helps me appreciate the Microed more.  Maybe
I'll just use double-enter to separate my paragraphs, and that will be
my compromise.
