Outlook Express Reply "Quotes"

[Alvis]

How do I "configure" Outlook Express 6 so that it does not insert >'s in
front of every line of an email I am replying to ... and then >> and then >>>
and then >>>> as the communications continue.

On a previous computer I was able to change these >'s to vertical lines but
have forgotten how I did it. I do not want to configure the program so that
it does not include the email/s to which I am replying as I find it useful to
build up a "chain" of emails when discussing things with colleagues. Would
prefer to have nothing in the left margin, but vertical lines are preferable
to rows of >'s.

Hope some can help.

Open Outlook Express and select Tools > Options > Send tab and then the
plain text button for mail or news.

Many thanks for your prompt reply. Such a simple adjustment but I would
never have been able to work it out for myself and I am so pleased to be rid
of the dreadful >>>>'s!!

Thank you again.
