After trying several editors, including WordPerfect 5.1 as an
Email editor, I found that the program EZQuote is superior to
them all. It is a rather basic and sparce editor, but geerally
more than enough for EMail. On the plus side, it works great with
OLRs like Blue Wave, is fast, uses little memory compared to
WP5.1, but most importantly is designed to specifically deal with
quoted and indented text of the type you normally find in QWK p
type email. It generates quotes automatically as you select the
portions of the original messagethat you want to quote and
arranges and formats it properly. The only thing that you have to
set is the right margin, it handles everything else!  It also
handles crossposting, carbon copies and works with shareware
spell checkers. IMHO one of the really nice shareware programs,
up there with blue wave, Telemate, List, etc.
