Hi Charles, I frequently use quoted text to get the context of a thread when something of interest comes up or to remind me of how the thread ended up where it was. I actually find it annoying when other people don't include the text they're replying to, but hey, that's their choice and who am I to tell them how to construct their emails.
I use Outlook 2007 due to my mail being on an Exchange server. It's a shame your quoting extension can't cope with the quoting mechanism used by the mail client with the largest market share (see http://fingerprintapp.com/email-client-stats - All versions of Outlook use a similar quoting system), maybe it's worth updating your code to handle Outlooks quoting as it's not really an edge case in terms of quoting internet emails. As for the signature, well most of it is legal junk (See http://www.shcl.co.uk/blog/2007/01/company-website-statutory-requirements.html for the reason behind 1st paragraph and http://www.emaildisclaimers.com/ for the reasons behind the second), and 1 line of marketing which doubles up as showing I have a clear interest in AndAppStore. Now we're getting a bit off topic so if you want to continue this discussion please feel free to mail me directly as opposed to on-list.

Hi Al, I have really wanted to send this for a while, but that last digest just took the cake... Would you please either: 1. (best) trim/delete all of the totally irrelevant and unnecessary quoted text from your posts - specifically including but not limited to the endless repeats of your (way too long) 'signature' - or, 2. at least use a standard quoting character for the quoted text, so my 'QuoteCollapse' extension will be able to collapse it all down to a single line. Thanks in advance... reading the digest version of this list is very painful, primarily and only because of your untrimmed posts. -- Best regards, Charles --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
