  recently been sat at a machine with outlook on it & there is little I=20

  e.g. when you hit reply you get these crappy indented blue lines where =

  either rich text or MS_HTML.
  What makes it worse is that it appears that if someone mails you in =

  I can see now why all MS users just put their reply at the top rather=20
