Default For those people using OE to read newsgroups

If you find that your newsreader (OE) doesn't properly quote some
messages (especially those from google groups), there is a freeware
fix called "oe quotefix".

I have been using this for over a year now, with no problems
whatsoever.

being a happy end user.


OE QuoteFix is, AFAIK, the only thing available that's half-fast
reliable and works consistantly. The two best sources for it a
http://www.insideoe.com/resources/tools.htm
or
http://majorgeeks.com/OE-QuoteFix_d4029.html

Both sites are safe & reliable, no covert probing, data collection etc..

For groups, it'll put your cursor at the bottom and your sig a the
botton, or you can change it if you wish. It does nothing to change OE;
it just sits on top of it and "fixes" some of the problems left in OE 5
& 6. You can use OE with or without it by pressing a key or using the
other icon.
It's not perfect and was abandoned years ago by its author, but it's
functional and does what it says it'll do.

I'd highly recommend it if OE is your client of choice.

HTH,

I used OE with QuoteFix for years before switching to Thunderbird. Now,
if I could just find BrainFix........
