Thanks to you and all others for answers.

I used OE years ago with the help of OE-Quotefix but well ... that was 

a poor solution.

That's why i finally found that newsreader called MesNews i'm now been 

using for years, also existing in many different languages.

But for some reason, i need to use WLM for answering to a few groups.

As i understand the answers, i have no real solution with WLM except in 

adding the >'s one by one ; i've looked at the other solutions but they 

seem to me being what we call in France (where i'm living) "a gasplant" 

because way too heavy for a so small use !

So, i think i'll keep my very dear MesNews for the 99% of my answers 

and considering the 1% i need WLM for, i'll do it by hand, thanks to 

Microsoft.
