*** Here is a responce to the above response!
** Here is a second responce to the original point.

To create a numbered list, simply use a number sign before your text. You can still indent replies, but it's a bit different as you'll see in the example below.

Example:

# Here is a point, numbered one.
#: Here is a responce below the previous point.
#:: Here is a responce to the above response!
#: Here is a second responce to the original point.
# Here is a second point, numbered two!

Result:

Here is a responce below the previous point.
Here is a responce to the above response!

Here is a second responce to the original point.
Here is a second point, numbered two!
