Clarification... If I would want to join a convo between two        people and at least one of them already has 3-initial quoted lines, I        found out that my R)eply would cause those lines to stagger when wrapped.              I guess that I could always just keep one or two lines of a previous        message for the reply. But a whole paragraph would require manual cleanup        to make the block look right.              Otherwise, OXP generates a 3-inital quote prefix (as in this reply) just        fine.              A direct reply to a 3-initial person is not to be feared. ;)              A message that already contains 3-intial quotes at a 2nd level seems to be        the problem.                      ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.40        * Origin: o,,,,o§ø`ø§o,,,,o§ø`ø§o,,,,o (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/2 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 227/114 229/354 426 1014       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/854 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120 712/848 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
