i'm not sure if others are seeing this, but what i'm seeing on your
posts (and on no one else's) is that, when you reply to someone else's
post and include their text, that text is not indented and identified
by ">"; rather, it's just sitting at the left side of the page so
that, at first glance, it looks like *your* text.
here, let me show you *exactly* what i'm seeing in this post of
yours:

aldo,
you appear to be making a mess of your attributions -- your posts
are showing up in my alpine mail client as if you're the author of
text that is clearly being included from previous posts.

Apologies. I'm not sure how that's been happening.
Please let me know whether the problem persists.

notice that my included content is not offset by ">" in your post,
which it normally is. what's weird is that, when i reply within
alpine, then the attributions look fine in the reply.
is anyone else seeing this? and, at least with me, it's only with
aldo's posts, no one else's.
