    It's too bad ProTerm's global macros won't work inside the editor,
otherwise I could have the whole thing figured out.  I grab the your "From"
header and move the colon to the end.  Then I reformat the quote as a
paragraph (using the OA-O command) and manually insert a CR and '>' at the end
of each line.  There will automatically be a space after the '>' if you do it
this way.  Then I send it using OA-A.
