Actually, it does *NOT* - at least not, when you're composing
text/plain mails, as you should.

Which version of outlook are you using?

OL2003

I don't want to go completely off-topic and turn this thread into a
outlook discussion, but I would like to understand why you and I have
such different opinions of outlook.

It's because of the version. In Outlook 2003, they now, in textmails,
properly prefix a quoted line with "> " (if so configured). And
they also allow to easily (ie. without restarting OL) switch between
textmails and HTML or Richtext - when you compose a mail, you can
select if you wish to use the plaintext editor, an HTML editor
or Word.

The only bad thing still is, that it adds a huge "preamble", like
this:

It just sucks, that they still have bad defaults - ie.
Rich Text and Word as Editor etc.pp.
