If you set Outlook up to convert to plain text, you get normal '>' style quoting when you reply. It also has the advantage that anyone replying to your mail sends in plain text by default as well.

- X-Istence 15y agoI have my Mail.app set to only send plain text emails, people still reply to me using Outlook using non-plaintext email.
- jodrellblank 15y agoThat's not an advantage. We've lost the "email should be short plain text" war, and we have to deal with real email which is coloured, formatted, fonted, has images and attachments and signatures and so on. Auto-switching email like that to plain text makes it difficult to read, screws up the layout, and loses information entirely.

To be honest the sort of mail that's multicoloured / multifont / etc. generally isn't worth reading, let alone replying to; but that's just my experience.
