Re: Correctly formatting Outlook mail?

If you get one of the patches available on the MS web site, then it will
let you quote anyway you want (placing the reply either before or after
the text and it quotes fine, as you wish).

It's the Internet e-mail patch. I have it for Outlook 97, but it should
work for 98 as well

Does anyone have a set of recipes that will correctly format Microsoft

Greg, I hear you and I whole-heartedly agree.  This is also a big Outlook 
shop and I hate 
the way it formats replys.

My gut feeling is that this would be better (or more easily) done in perl 
rather than 
procmail.  It would lend itself to recursion due to the variable number of 
nested replys. 
 Hmm.

Sounds kind of nasty to me, but it would be desirable...
