Good. Now you can work on your annoying quoting style.

???
Meaning what? You know, if you've got a problem then
let me in on it so I can correct it and stop annoying you.
Be specific so I know what you are refering to . . . OK.
I'm willing to do whatever needs to be done . . . or at
least take it into consideration. But you have to tell me
what you want me to change.
How'd you guys around here get to be so uptight?
(that's a joke, ok?)
I'd like to enjoy it if that's alright with you . . .

You should quote the previous poster with '> ' (or alternatively ': ') at
the beginning of each line, this will make it clear what are you words and
what things are quoted. Also most newsreaders will print the quotings in
a different color then. With OE this should be no problem.

Hi yooper, you recently wrote in povray.general:

What I usually do when I go on vacation is simply copy the directory
where Forte Agent stores the POV-Ray newsgroup stuff from my main
machine to my laptop and when I return I copy it back. But I doubt
that Outlook will let you do that.
Might be a reason to switch to a real newsreader like Forte Agent
(www.forteinc.com). They have a free version that's missing some of
the power features.

OK . . . I have it set to do that but it only seems to happen
with email replies and not when I reply to the group here.
So, I will paste whatever portions in and put > at the start.
Thanks . . . that wasn't too difficult.
What about quotes within the sentence? What is acceptable,
* or _ or ' ? I notice that people avoid using the quote, unquote
character and I assume there is a reason for this ... just don't
know what it iz.

I'm sure there's a way to get OE to do it right. Perhaps the options for
mail messages are separate from the options for news messages?
>What about quotes within the sentence? What is acceptable,
>* or _ or ' ? I notice that people avoid using the quote, unquote

No reason. They're perfectly acceptable. * is usually used to indicate
emphasis; use it where you'd use bold or italics. _ is used to indicate
underlining. Some people use / to indicate italics, but that's fairly
rare except in some of the older Usenet groups where everybody's been
around since God was a child. Whether you want to use ' or " to quote
things is a matter of personal taste.

You put your text directly after the text of the post you are replying
to, sometimes don't trim away excess quoted material, and provide no
sign which part is being quoted and which is your text.
Most newsreaders put "> " in front of each quoted line, and color-code
lines starting with ">" as quotes, making things much easier to keep
track of.
