(Only required because Gerry used QUOTED-PRINTABLE format.)
Do not use quoted-printable format.
* Not all NNTP clients handle quoted-printable format.
* Quoting gets mangled, especially for replies.
* No clear delineation between content for poster and respondent.
Do not use HTML format when posting to Usenet. Use plain-text format.
Also, do NOT use the space character as the indent character. Use ">".


Or try microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop (Windows Live Mail
used to be called Windows Live Mail Desktop).
 
I did not consciously use Quoted Printable! I replied in the format that
the original was sent. If you do not like Quoted Printable complain to
the person who started the ball rolling!

Guess mom never said to you "So, I suppose if all your friends jumped
off a cliff then you'd do it, too, huh?" Frank might've not known
better. So that's your excuse, too? You are not engaged in a private
conversation between just you and the OP. Usenet is not a private
chat or messenger service. You are promulgating your post to
e-v-e-r-y-o-n-e.

"Don't use quoted-printable" applies regardless that you are the
thread starter or replying. "Don't use HTML" applies to all
newsgroups unless their charter says otherwise (BTW, and as far as I
know, none of the microsoft.public.* groups have a charter written by
Microsoft, so the defaults for posting to Usenet apply.)

The Usenet is an anarchy. Any comment made regarding proper posting
is only a suggestion regarding netiquette but that doesn't preclude
being judged on your behavior. Even some MVPs will post using
quoted-printable format (they're only used to their Microsoft island
in the Usenet world). Even Microsoft doesn't comply with all Usenet
standards whether they are de facto or RFC standards (because
Microsoft only knows their island).

2. Don't post anything but plain text

Quoted-printable is still text but it is ENCODED text. HTML is also
always text but it is ENCODED text. Just post using PLAIN text
format.

As an experiment to yourself to see why quoted-printable is a crappy
format for replying, look at your own reply. Where is the
differentiation between your content and the OP's content? Now reply
to your own reply and notice again there is no differentiation between
each poster's content. The RFC stipulates how quoted-printable is
encoded. It does not stipulate how NNTP client will handle that
format when replying. OE chooses not to handle it all so there is no
differentiation between the content of different posters. Other NNTP
clients make arbitrary choices of where to truncated or wrap a line
(i.e., they chop up the content to get rid of the quoted-printable
format).

I gave up thinking the world was square many years ago. My belief is
live and let live. Good night.

And why there are no laws regarding how a society should behave, uh
huh.

You are truly over-reacting.
