When you reply to a message in the newsgroup, it inserts a line space before the quoted message appears.  It looks like:

Or

on blah date, jonathan starsmore wrote:

>>Bfdababdfbd

My question is if there is a setting that gets rid of the space before the quoted section, so it ends like:

on blah date, jonathan starsmore wrote:
