FYI it's also good practice to remove signatures when you reply; it 
confuses "good" mailers if you don't: your reply becomes a very LONG 
signature (which may be a different, possibly less legible color), and 
mailers that snip signatures will also snip your reply, rather than 
correctly quoting it.

And since you mentioned evil Outlook, two suggestions:

1. Get Thunderbird. Even if you (like me! ;-)) can't use this for 
regular e-mail, you can still use news.gmane.org and use it for nothing 
but this list (or other NNTP groups, of course).

2. Investigate "oe-quotefix". Googling that, or 'outlook PCYMTNQREAIYR' 
should find it.
