And this time you found the END key. My news reader allows me to config
where to start replying and how much to include. If lookout can't, I
suggest you get a proper, RFC 1855 more compliant mailer.

If you want people to use your site, having speling misteaks that the reader
has to correct will put off many people - it's much easier to read a text if
the spelling is correct and a user can mentally skip words as opposed to
having to insert them.

By the first couple of lines, I conclude thatthere are three columns, but
this then breaks down a few lines later and I can't work out what should be
where. Result: I gave up.

It was split by your mailer...it's a mess on my news reader as well.
