[OT] Outlook quoting (was RE: Name spaces in Spoon)

There are 'normal' email users even at Microsoft, but you have to dig a
bit.  Tool>Options, Preferences tab, Email Options..., when trplying to
a message prefix each line of the original and type "> " into the prefix
field.  You'll get a warning about Outlook being unable to ignore the
quoted area for spell-checking - big deal.

This has been in Outlook since at least OL2000, possibly earlier, so
it's likely the one you're using has it.

Thanks for the pointer.  I looked at that screen several times and never
really saw the drop down for what it was.

Yeah, I had to have it pointed out to me.  There's nothing like good
interface design...
