Quoting settings

[ivanbuto]

In the readme, the following instructions are given to set up email in Outlook:

Tools > Options > Preferences > E-mail Options… > On replies and forwards

• Change the value “When replying to a message” to “Prefix each line of the original message”
• Set “Prefix each line with” to “> ”
• Change the value “When replying to a message” back to to “Include original message text”

Is this correct? If I change the quoting setting back to "include original message text", and then use FixedReply, I get an empty citation (no quoted text at all).

The problem is that when replying to HTML e-mails, which I use most of the time, I might want to keep the "include original message text" option. Is there any way to have this combination, or do I have to change the setting to prefix messages, which will also impact HTML messages?

Also do you know if there is any way to assign other icons to the custom FixedReply button other than the icons offered by Outlook?

I would like to use the same icon as is displayed on the standard Reply button, but it's not available ones.

First to the second question about the icon, because this is short: Unfortunately I don't have a clue how to do that. If you eventually find a solution, please let me/us know!

To your first question/issue: Could you let us know which (exact) version of QuoteFixMacro you are using? Because this shouldn't happen. As you can see here

	'basically, we do not understand HTML mails
	If Not (bodyFormat = olFormatPlain) Then
	If CONVERT_TO_PLAIN Then
	'Unfortunately, it is only possible to convert the original mail as there is
	'no easy way to create a clone. Therefore, you cannot go back to the original format!
	'If you e.g. would decide that you need to forward the mail in HTML format,
	'this will not be possible anymore.
	SelectedObject.bodyFormat = olFormatPlain
	Else
	Dim ReplyObj As MailItem
	Select Case MailMode
	Case TypeReply
	If isMail Then
	Set ReplyObj = OriginalMail.Reply
	Else
	Set ReplyObj = OriginalMeeting.Reply
	End If

non-Plain-Text emails should be handled as if you clicked the (normal) Reply button (assuming CONVERT_TO_PLAIN is still the default DEFAULT_CONVERT_TO_PLAIN (which is False)).
