That setting is in the senders email. You can avoid having it added to
your email when replying in plain text format. Tools/options. Click on
send tab. Under Mail sending format, click plain text settings. Uncheck
'Indent ...'

I don't like them because if I want to cut and paste the text (maybe a joke
or a saying) into a word document, then I have to go through a delete all
the stupid >'s. You got an easy way of doing that?

In Word you can do Ctrl-H which does a global Search & Replace.
Tell it to search for '>' and to replace with nothing.
