    What version of Pine are you running?  It makes a BIG difference. 
Versions 3.94 and 3.95 allow you to specify the prefix character in
your configuration file.  I don't recall just when this feature came 
in, although I know 3.91 did not have it.  If you are running an older
version which does not have the built-in capacity for setting the
quoting prefix character, I have a simple technique you can lift off
my WWW home page.

	You don't say which version of pine you are using.....

	In 3.94+ (3.95 being the current version) you have:

reply-indent-string      = <No Value Set: using "> ">

	Regards,
