   This Sylpheed supports ftn style quoting, I set up the quote string as "%I> ",   
   and now it is working just fine.   
      
   Also in HotDogEd (Android news reader) it is possible to set the quoting to   
   "FTN". It however won't work ok if "def_showto on" is set in jamnntpd. :(

   OT> Right. I thought if Wilfred saw it, maybe others spotted it too.   
      
   Well, Wilfred is The Police of Everything FTN related. And I like it! :D

   I think so. But I am no real C programmer, I still have much to learn.
