This differs slightly from what Nick        >last posted where the prefix omitted the leading space, '> '. Either        >way works for me but am noting that mutt (email agent with vim as        >default editor) uses the '> ' quote prefix which appears to be the norm        >in traditional email applications.              Can confirm that the leading space is not included in most of the email and/or       newsgroup clients I've tried recently.              This list consists of Thunderbird, Claws Mail, slrn, tin, alpine, and most       recently (and used in this message), neomutt. However, I believe that string       is configurable in most of the ones I just listed, but if you change the       default, then external editors like vi(m) or nano don't recognize them when       you try to reformat the quoted text.              >...

This past Monday and Tuesday we got to -30F       (-34.44444C).              Regards,       Nick              ...
