The above is an example of a message where the indentation levels are 
boogered.

Ahh, I see (I'm not the OP or anyone who participated in this thread prior to 
now, iirc).

So, I went looking for the original of the post you forwarded here (in my mail 
folder) and couldn't find it--I may have deleted it.

I found a similar one, partially copied below just for reference--a very 
similar email also from Long Wind.

It seems that this message (and the one David refers to above) is the first 
boogered message, and I want to find out which email client caused the problem.

I viewed source and found this:

X-Mailer: WebService/1.1.11051 YahooMailNeo Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; 
rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0 Iceweasel/38.2.1

I'm not good at either reading or interpreting email headers, but I think this 
is telling me that the mail was generated (or replied to) using a web based 
emailer, presumably on Mozilla/5.0.

I don't know if that is the case, nor if there is some setting that can be 
changed (by the replier) to make quoting come out "properly".

Most people here use prefix quotation (as I have here) rather
than indentation quotation. I add indentation to lines in some
of my posts for emphasis, disambiguation, etc, but the text
is still "owned" by me.

I think you quoted some text from ?kernel documentation, and
presumably agreed with it. I can't see what the fuss is about.
The first line of this post says "David Christensen wrote:".
Should I change it to "David Christensen posted:"? I had
assumed that we conventionally wrote the second when we meant
the first.

Cheers,
David.

Or vice-versa.

There is or was a member of this forum (whose Gallic-sounding name
rather escapes me--was it Stéphane Monnier?) who systematically
eliminates the attributions from his posts--well, at least the top-level
attribution. Actually I believe he's a severe trimmer, so in my memory there is
rarely if ever anything but a top-level attribution to eliminate. 

But then he takes care to sign *his* name at the bottom.

Go figure.

This irritated me to the point where I was going to ask him here why he
eliminated the name of the poster to which he was responding while
making a point of signing nominatively his own articles, but I didn't
because I'm striving to be a mature individual.

You are welcome, Long.  :-)
