I received a response e-mail from someone a while back and in it my original text was indented and a blue vertical line was added along its edge. Unfortunately I didn't think to ask them how they accomplished the effect. I've recently been trying to duplicate this with e-mails I respond to. The closest that I have been able to get is by using MS Word as the e-mail editor, I can create a style, (indented with a blue left border) then highlight the original message and manually apply the styleto it.

Is there an automatic way to apply the style I created to the original text? Is there a way add the vertical blue line & indent to original text using Outlook?

Thanks!!!

Its not a stationary effect, its a feature specific to Word. Unfortunately you can't control how your reply emails from Outlook look without manually doing so. Even if you could force a stationary onto each email you replied to, you would not receive that "verticle blue line" next to the indented history.

So if you like the feature, use Word.
