Outlook 2007 - Salutation In RepliesI have just installed the Outlook 2007 trial and managed to import my
contacts (a pain) and set up one of my email accounts. In previous email clients I have always had the option to start a reply with 'On date someone said' but I am not getting this in Outlook. Can somebody tell me what I need to do please? -- Jeff Gaines Jeff Gaines <whitedragon@newsgroups.nospam> wrote:

However, Outlook-Quotefix works only with Plain Text messages and it won't work with Outlook 2007 as of yet. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] On 19/11/2007 in message <OD8i$ckKIHA.5***@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl> Brian

I exported my addresses from TheBat! in ldif format but then had to import them into OE before getting them into Outlook, ludicrous that Outlook doesn't import ldif itself. If I decide to keep Outlook then I will need to get several hundred emails into it somehow from a variety of mailing lists. Unfortunately it still doesn't seem to use the Unix mailbox format which was an accepted standard long before MSFT came on the (Internet) scene. >>In previous email clients I have always had the option to start a Oh dear :-(>>reply with 'On date someone said' but I am not getting this in >>Outlook. > >You need to have software that will accomplish this, like >Outlook-Quotefix.

That may be the final nail in the coffin. -- Jeff Gaines Jeff Gaines <whitedragon@newsgroups.nospam> wrote:

The article I'm about to cite is for Mozilla, but if TheBat uses mbox format, it shoujld apply there as well: http://sillydog.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2062 -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] On 19/11/2007 in message <u9bgzoqKIHA.5***@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl> Brian
