The information in this article applies to:
In the Internet Mail service in Microsoft Outlook 98, the spelling checker may include the original message text even if you select the "Ignore original message text in reply or forward" option.
You have the option to "Prefix each line of the original message" with a "tick" mark selected.
Turn off "Reply Ticking."
The Internet Mail service in Outlook allows you to mark each line of the original text of an e-mail reply with a special character. This character, referred to as a "tick" mark, precedes each line of original text. The tick mark is usually a greater than sign, a colon, or a vertical line (>, :, |).
Follow these steps to turn on Reply Ticking for e-mail messages:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Preferences tab.
2. Click E-mail Options.
3. In the "On replies and forwards" section, under "When replying to a
message" and/or "When forwarding a message," click "Prefix each line of
the original message." In the "Prefix each line with" box, type the
character you want to use as the tick mark.
If you prefix each line of replies or forwards with a character,
the spelling checker cannot ignore the original message, and
checks the entire message for misspellings. To change your reply
style, use E-mail Options on the Preferences tab.
To set spelling options in Outlook, do the following:
1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click the Spelling tab. Select the options you want.
3. Click OK.
