     |Does anyone know if there is a way to change the prefix used by

     |an '> ' instead of three spaces. All I can find is how to change the
     |prefix to be greater or fewer than the default of three.

 "three spaces" is a sort of indentation, and you will be able to change
it to "zero space" as follows.

	(setq mail-yank-original-default-indentation 0)

 Similarly, prefix string will be changed to "> " individually.

	(setq mail-yank-original-quoting-indicator "> ")
