Hi All,

I think the suggestion was that "It was an option" I would also like
this option. From a business perspective it ensures that the entire
conversation can be seen in a single document. Yes it costs a little
more in storage but storage is cheap.

Also other mail clients do exactly this. I suggest that you test with
the more common email clients.

The fact that you conflate this with with top posting Microsoft, google
etc doing things is a manner which doesn't agree with your views isn't
really relevant.
Just as if you don't like a members of a particular race or sexual
orientation whilst it might be relevant to you, it's not really
relevant to including the history in a reply. 

Keep on track, standards (rather than convention) based and try to be a
bit inclusive. 

Below is a test using a couple of common email clients" (Note the top
the full history and top posting as it's the convention in my place of
work ;-)

when I reply to email, in the text of email history is just last email
from sender, but not the whole thread / full history of our
conversation. Is it possible to set this somewhere or I will need to
make feature request?
There is no email client I am aware of that supports this.
Too many people are in the habit of quoting the entire message whenthey
reply, and if everyone does this then the result is a completetrace of
the conversation, but that is a consequence of a) Microsoft'sbrain-dead 
decision to promote top-posting in Outlook, contrary to allprevious
practice, which was then slavishly followed by other softwareincluding
Gmail, and b) users being either too lazy or too incompetentto trim the
material they quote.
This practice is not welcome on mailing lists, which already have
theentire thread archived anyway, so we try to encourage people not
totop-post and to trim their quotes to the relevant part of the
message(very easy to do in Evolution).
