If my company received such a poorly written document as you've posted
here, it would get tossed immediately into the round file.

Why? Only the highly educated and eloquent customers deserve to be
treated properly?

Certainly not those who don't know how to quote properly

Are you saying that I didn't quote properly?

I would have thought that it was pretty obvious that your posts are
severely broken in the quoting department.

I see you are using Windows live mail which explains a lot.

Tom has NEVER quoted properly.
He choses to use 4th-rate software
and doesn't manually compensate for that crap.

See "NEVER", above.

A **proper** newsreader does it all for you automatically.

There *used* to be a tweak for M$'s old sucky software.

I don't think that works on M$'s latest sucky software.

_You_ have to do it _manually_.

I trusted that all I had to do was post. I never consider software. No
one has ever said anything to me until now. If you have seen a problem
with my posts in the past why didn't you say something.
I used what Win7 uses since I switched over. I guess I'll go back to
Agent even though I don't like it.

You are using an e-mail client to post that can't handle Usenet.
Switch to a newsreader and the basic functions and requirements
will just be there.

Get a real newsreader.
Notice how everyone else's places levels of the > character in front
of quoted material when they reply. Notice how your Windows Live Mail
does not.

40tude Dialog, Microplanet Gravity, Xnews, even Thunderbird ...

They are on my machine. WLM updates have been driving me crazy.
I will investigate. Thanks.
You've all four installed and still you persist with a broken newsreader?

Incredible. Just when you think you've met the stupidest person on
USenet, along comes someone else to prove you wrong.

You've been told enough times by others- get a newsreader and lose WLM.

You haven't met NymNuts. He's so stupid that he needs over 100
suckpuppets.

If you continually fail to quote properly you will continually be
told that you failed to quote properly.

Thank You Mike.
I agree that MLM is crap. But I need to use it to see what my clients
see.
I don't recall ever being told about quoteing problems, if you can
show me the posts I would be gratefull.

I also have WLM and it is severely retarded and became more broken in their
2011 release when somebody at M$ decided to "fix" it, which now usually
means making it "pretty" rather than useful. I have xNews but I really like
the convenience of having my mail and usenet in one place. If I used
newsgroups a lot more than I do, I would probably switch. I tried posting
questions about WLM to the authorized M$ forum and even the official M$
techies realize that there is a problem but after a year or more nothing has
been fixed and it may be even more broken.

"Made by monkeys"! (Or maybe cats - I removed it from the follow-ups, but I
can believe cats could be responsible for the WLM problems. Cats are evil,
alien beings. Dogs rule!
