  When-ever I post a followup article, and include bits of the
original using C-c C-y, it marks the yanked lines with 3 spaces, but I
don't want 3 spaces, I want a nice little ">" as I find them nice to
look at. So I found what C-c C-y was bound to, "mail-yank-original", I
then hunted down it's source. It tells me that I can indent any number
or spaces including 0, but nothing else, just spaces. Aaaaaarrrrrrgggg!

  Help me please, as I'm fed up with "   " as a prefix as I think it's
both unclear, and ugly.
