"... to standardize things across email clients (e.g. the quotation prefix and "quote" line, plain text vs. html, character encodings)?"
My favorite is that Outlook's re-encoding of :-) shows up as the letter J. That kind of defeats the original purpose of text art -- that it is portable across clients. I heard the latest version of Emacs now supports Webkit HTML. For me, quoting sanity went to hell when I stopped using Emacs for my mail program. Well now Emacs does HTML, but I have been hijacked by the calendar capability in Outlook. Obviously I wouldn't want to lose the ability to have other people schedule my day.
