I'm not sure I understand the problem, either. But I did find the message I
sent a while ago about the problem and the response:

This is caused when the message to which you're replying was sent using
Quoted Printable format. Nothing you can do about it, short of installing

Looking at Newgroups and hitting replies normally puts a ">" in front of
the
text so the my responses can be easily seen.

But sometimes it doesn't do that. I thought it was some setting on my
program and was starting to act up when it happened. But it only happens
on
some messages. When it does happen other messages work fine. So
something
in the message must be causing it to not work

What would cause this?

Thanks,

Not sure I can do much about it, according to Robert. I will look at the
fix he mentioned. Looks pretty good, though.

I agree that th is off topic.

Just thought I would let you know.

Thanks,

Tom

Okay, I know I said I wasn't going to add any more to the thread. But I
just had to share this:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q168779/

So, Microsoft calls this a "side-effect", and incorrectly claims that "The
main purpose of 'Plain Text, Quoted Printable' format is to allow for line
wrapping".

Sheesh. I mean, I'm normally a reasonably staunch defender of Microsoft
and their products, but when I read stuff like this KB article, it's not
hard to see how people start getting the impression that someone over
there isn't operating with all of their marbles, that they aren't the
sharpest knife in the drawer, that the lights are on but no one's home,
that..

Oh well. At least there's a "fix". And if you don't like the
"OE-QuoteFix" utility, you have a number of other good newsreaders on
Windows to choose from.
