subject: Msgedsq quoting

ac>> I was expecting the "ac>>" quote to be indented
by a column like 
ac>> the " PE>".

BG> That was specifically changed so that all quotes are flush with 
BG> the left margin, where I actually prefer it.

I prefer the method outlined in FSC-32.


BG> AAMOI, here is my entire msged.cfg for comparison with yours...

Thanks Bill.  Here is mine for comparisin with yours. :-)
