I can't see any of the text I'm repyling to and no obvious "quote" button. This is my first post so I wonder how it'll look. </steve>

You are right that there is no quoting functionality in the current newsreader. The design objective was to try to reduce message clutter in threads.  

What you can do is, right click on the reply button and open up the reply window separately.  You can easily copy and paste any piece of the original message into the new window.
