For those of you that use OE and hate its reply quoting style, check out OE-QuoteFix. It absolutely Does The Right Thing.

Of course, the number of you that use OE and actually care to DTRT is probably pretty small. But there are those of use that are forced to use it.

I used this and found it caused OE to hang and just generally act weird.

I can believe that. Do you have a better solution?

It worked fine for me, but I didn't use it much. We kinda have to use Outlook, rather than OE. Anything I could use OE on, I use mutt, anyway.

Read through http://learn.to/edit.messages, then edit the message manually.

Yeah, yeah. Up yours, too.

I'ts just a PITA to fix up what OE decides to generate. I decided to just install PC-Pine and forget about it.
