- athenot 9y agoThat was my response 15 years ago. Unfortunately, I've lost that battle and moved on. There comes a point when trying to fight the common expectation leads to zero return. (And yes, I miss the days where SMTP & NNTP servers would actually enforce the ratio of non-quoted lines vs. quotes lines, forcing users to trim the relevant parts of the message they are replying to.)
