Ya know. on my link to this group I use google and there are two
options. 1 is to reply and one says "show quoted text".

I clicked on the reply and darn if it didn't post his entire 2348
pages of facts. GG

Maybe someone who knows how this crap works can set me straight...

I've only ever manually deleted it

Same here with Outlook Express, but the thing that really frustrates me is
that part of the time the "show quoted text" feature works correctly (as it
has in this instance), while at other times the most recently quoted text
looks as though it was part of what I typed (meaning that the "" symbols
were not added to the beginnings of all prior lines).

I'm more than a little curious; but haven't found time (and necessary
knowledge) to document a list of header and tracing information.

Any ideas?

Those are called angle brackets.
I manually delete in both gmail and outlook. I have the same frustration
with the angle brackets.
I tried a few other newsreaders but they are frustrating for other reasons
so I keep manually deleting

No sorry and I guess I am not even really sure what you are asking

That one is probably the difference between sending text and html.
Text inserts the "" to show prior quotes, Html uses color and a vertical line.

Thanks Richard, HTML versus Text may very well be the reason.
