   4. How can I have the classic ">" back instead of the vertical bar?   
      
   Add the following lines to your user.js:   
      
   user_pref("mail.quoted_graphical", false);   
   user_pref("mail.quoteasblock", false);   
   user_pref("mailnews.display.disable_format_flowed_support", true);   
      
   The third line disables format=flowed and is necessary to completely    
   disable it. Without it, format=flowed messages would still have the    
   vertical bar.   
   Thunderbird needs a bit more tweaking. Add the following lines to your    
   userContent.css:   
      
   blockquote[type=cite] {   
        padding-bottom: 0 !important;   
        padding-top: 0 !important;   
        padding-left: 0 !important;   
        border-left: none !important;   
        border-right: none !important;   
   }   
      
   Or use an extension called Quotecolors to facilitate the process.
