A Geek Question
 

Upon downloading a message that was a response to my message, I get this:

OK! Maybe we'll get Windows for Workgroups 3.11 back again. Yippee. I can't
wait.- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

Question: From where comes the "-Hide quoted text-" and "-Show quoted
text-"

Is that from one of my settings in Agent, or from the responder's (in this
case, Tim) settings in his program.

If it's my setting, how do I change it?

TIA

It comes from Sergey Brin and Larry Page two of the most duplicitous
pricks that ever started up a search engine. Anything China wants they
do and screw the rest of the world.

It is from Google's worthless web interface to newsgroups.

You can also choose to hide or show quoted text in Thunderbird, which
has nothing to do with Google or Google groups.

OK. I thought it might have been one of my settings. But, as I can see from
your response, it doesn't always happen.

Thanks.

Wasn't the question... He simply asked "where it came from"...

You know, Harry could just quit pretending to use filters. Then he wouldn't
get so friggin' confused when he wanted to respond to Reggie or I. He could
just do it.

Of course, he'd have to grow a pair.

* The ability to "hide" or "show" quoted text? It comes from whoever
programmed the ability in whatever app he is using.- Hide quoted text -

No one here had a question or a statement about the ability to hide or
show text, you fool.
