Default How is this?

When I reply to geotso, my default encoding is Greek; I changed it to
Western European (Windows) for my latest reply just in case that might make
any difference.

Hi Geotso,

Thunderbird usually doesn't have an issue with that.

In Thunderbird check in
Tools=Account Settings=Composition & Addressing
to see if you've turned on the option to

'Automatically quote the original message when replying'

In viewing your message in Thunderbird it's showing Greek (ISO-8859-7) for
text encoding.
In viewing in Outlook Express it shows Western Europe (Windows)
but changing didn't stop Thunderbird from including the original message
in the reply.

==============

It seems that OE you use as newsreader, adds a header "X-RFC2646:
Format=Flowed; Response" in your posts (Graham's post, too) that prevents
my
Thunderbird from including the previous messages, along with my answer,
when
I post back to you (or to Graham).

Could you please tell me how you edit the headers in OE, or it's a
server-side setting?

Thank you and sorry for the off-topic post...

It's turned on alright. After all, as you can see, in this answer TB does
quotes the original messages; and that's because (in my opinion) in your
message's source there isn't the reference "X-RFC2646: Format=Flowed; Response".

In viewing your message in Thunderbird it's showing Greek (ISO-8859-7) for text encoding.
In viewing in Outlook Express it shows Western Europe (Windows)
but changing didn't stop Thunderbird from including the original message in the reply.

That confirms once again that the problem is in the reference I said and not
anywhere else...

I note that in the reply in which I changed the format from Greek to Western
European, the header says "X-RFC2646: Format=Flowed; Original." See what
happens if you reply to that one.

I'm afraid the same

(I was already aware that this reference acts the same way, but I hadn't
mentioned it till now, as it doesn't appear in the current situation -the
posts I've mentioned as example).

Well, thank you very much for your time. As about the problem I'll see what
can I do with the guys from Mozilla/Thunderbird discussion group, where I've
posted the problem too.

Thanks again...

It may well have to do with OE's nonconforming use of the -- for signatures.
I forget the details, but there's possibly something about an extra space
after the hyphens signaling the end of the message? I've removed the space
from this message. Does that make a difference?

Hi Geotso,

In using thunderbird I don't have a problem replying to messages that have the RFC2646 reference in the heading.

Well, short of remembering to remove the space from the signature every time
I post (or using a different newsreader), I don't guess there's much I can
do; this is a "bug" in OE that the OE MVPs have been hammering MS about for
years.

which, is only used (as far as I can presume from my experience) by less
than 1% of the OE users.

The good news are that Windows mail (Vista) isn't infected from the disease
(at least in this area )
