Title: Those little arrows when replying to email
Post by: newrounduser on March 02, 2011, 12:37:09 PM
How do I kill those? Do I have to manually take them out before replying to an email? If it matters, my site is hosted with Blu Domain, and I'm using the version of Roundcube that comes on my cpanel. Here's what I mean, when I click reply, this is what it looks like:

I'm sure I don't need to mention I replaced the actual text with xxxxxx. I'm just showing those stupid arrows. Thanks in advance for the help.

Since your using RoundCube setup by your provider you wouldn't be able to modify the code.

Why do you want to kill it? This is a common style to reply to plain text mails. Switch to HTML mode if it is more comfortable for you.

Really? Seeing a < in front of every line of text is a good thing? I did switch to use html, and it didn't change a thing. Crap!

It is. It separates the original text from the text added by the sender. In the very old days it even had the initials of the original sender in front of it like:

Hello,
