Change Thunderbird reply/quote text?

[edmicman]

Well apparently the mozillazine forums search is down: "The forums are in overload mode. Searching has been disabled."

Is there a way in Thunderbird to change the reply-to text? For instance, I hit reply, and it says

so-and-so wrote:

I thought one of the options allowed a custom field...it would just be a matter of putting the corresponding code values in the order you wanted. Maybe I could play with it later tonight...
