How do I get that nice inline-quote indicator in Outlook 2010 when replying to emails?
Problem
Outlook 2010 (beta). I like responding to email inline-style, where there is an indicator (typically a gray vertical bar, |) denoting the quoted content. Not sure if I can attach an image, but will give text example: I just got an email from someone who replied inline with this same style, but I can't for the life of me find what format option in the Ribbon I need to do the same. I know I can go through and do this manually with plain-text emails, but the email I am responding to accomplished this with HTML style message, and I would have to remove the formatting and then re-apply the quote style with plain-text markings. Suggestions?
Error Output
This is some email content. | This is a quote from the original email This is my response to that quote | | This denotes a nested quote from a previous message And another inline response.

Click the File tab Choose Options from the left menu Choose Mail from the left menu Scroll down for Replies and Forwards Choose your relevant options from the dropdown. I think what you're looking for is "Prefix each line of the original message" To remove the existing prefix / blue bar, change message type to rich text and press Ctrl-Q (per @djp and @Alexander Amelkin; be sure to up-vote those comments below if this helps).
