It depends on what program you use to read news.  I use "rn" on my
system, and if you reply to an article by typing Shift-F, it will
include the article in your reply, set off by ">" characters.  Note that
you really should delete the non-relevant portions of the quoted text.

If this doesn't work for you, you should ask the question in the new
users' newsgroup, "news.groups.newusers".
