Sending replies to emails

I am now using OE6. Some time ago when using OE5 I found a way to use a
vertical line instead of "" when replying to an email. I would like to
revert to "" rather than the vertical line, but I can't find out how to do
it. Can anyone help?

Go up to:
Tools -
Options -
Send tab -
Look down to "News sending format" on the Send tab; next to it is a "Plain
text settings" button - hit it;
On the resulting window at the bottom, there's a drop-down menu for which
symbol you want to use.

You can change it back to "" with OE-QuoteFix (and you can change many
other things, too).

Oh *email*, not ng posts - whoops, sorry! (I did read "e-mails", it just
didn't sink in.)

But... same thing, I think: just use the button next to mail settings,
instead of news, except I *think* you need to use plain text Vs. HTML) for
your e-mails in that case.

Someone with a lot more knowledge may come along & prove me wrong,
needing plain text.

Thanks for the reply. I had previously selected the option you suggest for
text formatted email & newsgroup postings. However, I use HTML format for
all emails (not newsgroup postings) that I send. It's been a few years since
I found a way to change the "" symbol to a vertical line so I can't say for
sure that at that time I used HTML format for sending replies to emails.

If I follow the path ToolsOptionsSend, then click the HTML & Html Settings
buttons and clear the check box for "Indent..." in the HTML Settings window,
the email that I am replying to is not indented and has no formatting
characters added.

Yes, in HTML the choice is all (vertical line) or none.
