Default quoteback markup tags

Are there any other markup tags that one can use to delimit quotebacks?

I noticed that the thread tree "skips over" the "[quote]" style quotebacks and "jumps" to the actual "new" reply text. This is a handy and reasonable feature.

In Yahoo groups, the server "skips over" the leading "---" dashes and the ">" quote back marked text to "jump" to the new reply text, in an analogous manner.

Would the ">" prefix markup also work like that here? Seems like it should or at least that might be a server side option since that convention is quite common, at least in email mesaging.
