You are using Word as your new-mail editor. You also configured Word to
show formatting characters. Someone that knows Word can tell you how to
navigate the menus (or you could look for yourself).

On the Format Text tab and in the Paragraph section of Outlook 2007 click
the ¶ button.

I use a newsgroup reader that shows me exactly which post my replies are
for - maybe you should too. This is one of the reason why I don't use
web-based readers.

These posts are replicated over many thousands of news servers round the
world, not just the MS news servers. Posts go "missing". That is one reason
why you should quote the the post you are replying to.
Have a look he

And if you look at my headers you will see that I AM using a newsreader.

OK. I take your point. I just hate that we are still stuck in the dark ages!

Press Ctrl-Shift-8 to toggle the formatting marks off/on.

Standard practice for newsgroups, exspecially when using a newsreader, is to
quote the message to which you're replying.

It's only the dark ages if you quote the entire message without using cut to
remove the irrelevant portions (like the signature of the person to whom
you're replying).
