email reply indent doesn't work

ol03, reply as plain text, using the outlook spell check, not using word:

i have it set to indent when replying, but nothing indents in the reply. i
only want a reasonable way to reply to different points in an email. if i
use characters before the reply then i have to deal with the spell checker
reading everything. if i turn on word for email i have to deal with outlook
whining about normal.dot not being saved properly. so i'd like to try
indenting, but it doesn't seem to work.

help?

I could be wrong, but I believe that indentations is a property of some type
of formatting, i.e. RTF or HTML. You can't indent plain text unless you
manually add spaces, which is not really indenting. Indenting is setting
left justification to begin farther right than the normal text.

based on what i have seen, i can believe what you are saying. i am not
happy with the way outlook handles replies.
