Odd, that, since this isn't that long a thread.

According Mike Maltby MS-MVP, when the References rich the 1000 characters
OE wraps the text, and brakes the "chain". That's the "ill-formed message"
explanation you receive.

then, "Suzanne S. Barnhill" climbed to the rostrum and said:
The reason I'm not using it, I think, was that it wasn't applicable to
the
version of OE I was using on my old computer. I believe I could not apply
it; thanks for reminding me.

I seem to be unable to reply to geotso's message; when I try to post
this, I get this message:

Well, short of remembering to remove the space from the signature
every time I post (or using a different newsreader), I don't guess
there's much I can do; this is a "bug" in OE that the OE MVPs have
been hammering MS about for years.

Cured with OEQuotefix AFAIR....
which, is only used (as far as I can presume from my experience) by
less than 1% of the OE users.

Which is why the MS groups are full of messages containing quoted
sigs... ;-)
