How does one set a newsgroup response in Live mail so that the original posting is indented or marked off with a symbol such as "." I can seem to find a way to do that. Thanks, Quigley |

Try the steps on this page:- http://www.dusko-lolic.from.hr/wlmquote/ Or give up and start using a decent program, such as Thunderbird, Turnpike or Agent. -- Tciao for Now! John. |

And a good choice by the way. Thunderbird will put in the quote marks. Just about anything will put in quote marks. Except perhaps something written by Microsoft, which has to "gimp into last place" when it comes to newsreading and writing. I think their bad implementation, is a source of pride to them. Paul |

Microsoft doesn't want you going to Usenet ever since they nuked their Usenet servers' MS newsgroups. Try Thunderbird; it's similar to Windows Live Mail. -- Alias |

And a good choice by the way. Busted? Read the rest! Are you really that slow Paul? Bill Asus EEE PC 702G4 ~ 2GB RAM ~ 16GB-SDHC Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix Linux And I was complaining how bad Linux is and how bad Thunderbird is, but what are you going to do when you run Linux? You have to put up with the crap they feed you. I even stated I was using Thunderbird in the message itself. How dumb can you get Paul? Thunderbird will put in the quote marks. Don't get me started about all of the stupid crap that Thunderbird puts the user through. It doesn't get all of the messages, as it misses like 1 to 2%. You can't use your favorite editor with all of the wonderful features of macros and all and then paste it back in. Switching between threaded and unthreaded takes forever. Can't view only read and unread watched at the same time. There are so many bad things about Thunderbird it isn't funny. Just about anything will put in quote marks. Except perhaps something written by Microsoft, which has to "gimp into last place" when it comes to newsreading and writing. I think their bad implementation, is a source of pride to them. I am using Microsoft newsreader right now Paul! And it places quote marks perfectly. It even fixes your messed up quotes that your software had created. There is only one Microsoft product that doesn't automatically quote and only one version. And that is WLM 2012 and that is it. But saying all Microsoft products doesn't is just being so super dumb and ignorant. -- Bill Gateway M465e ('06 era) - OE-QuoteFix v1.19.2 Centrino Core Duo T2400 1.83GHz - 2GB - Windows XP SP3 |

Thunderbird, Turnpike, and Agent are terrible! Why do you push that crap for? Probably because they work regarding what the OP asked about. Unless the OP can find a pre-version 15 of WLM (which he won't get from Microsoft), he'll remained screwed by Microsoft's decision to NOT properly delimit and indent the quoted content in a reply. Those newsreaders you mentioned do that just fine. No, they may not have that one super-critical function that YOU deem is required (by YOU and only YOU) but not everyone feels that function is absolutely necessary. |
