Variable: mh-ins-buf-prefix

mh-ins-buf-prefix is a customizable variable defined in mh-e.el.gz.

Value

"> "

Documentation

String to put before each line of a yanked or inserted message.

The prefix "> " is the default setting of this option. I suggest that you not modify this option since it is used by many mailers and news readers: messages are far easier to read if several included messages have all been indented by the same string.

This prefix is not inserted if you use one of the supercite flavors of mh-yank-behavior or you have added a mail-citation-hook.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in MH-E version
6.0.
