Impressive. Works well in mutt, too. But when it comes time to reply to such niftiness, we might be better off hard wrapping it, to restore the plaintext quoting - at least when multiple authors are quoted, or we won't know what was written by Arthur, Martha, or Mo. (Maybe the GUI world doesn't fuss much with attribution?) Erik
