I have double-checked that "Automatically quote the original message

the original message is quoted when I reply to it.
On the other hand, if I highlight only part of the original message,
only the highlighted parted is, as expected, quoted.
Is this problem specific to my machine or ... ? Thanks
John, I've never thought about replying without quoting the message to
which you are replying (*WHY* would you want to do that, in any case??)
but just tried it, on my mail account and this News account, and both
gave me addressed and subjected but otherwise blank screens.
So I guess it's a problem on your machine! Unless it's because I'm using
SM 2.1a2.

Daniel, thanks for this indication the problem seems to be specific to
my machine.
But if you have no idea why someone might want to reply to emails
without quoting the original, you might want to consider space,
bandwidth, clarity of presentation just to name some considerations.
With snail mail, you do not reply to a letter by systematically
attaching the one you are replying to. The comparison has its limits,
granted, but still ...
John, until about fifteen months ago I was on Dial-up, so am still very
aware of the size of e-mails (cure those who post/email in HTML) but I
found that very, very, few e-mails exceeded about 10KBytes.
I can, sort of, see your point that the person to whom I'm replying will
already have a copy of the e-mail they sent me, but still I think it is
easier to read if all the info is there right in front of me!!
But, to each their own, I guess!
SM is qouting the received mail with in front "XXXXX wrote:"
I appréciate this, and when i feel that the quoting is not useful, i
remove it before composing my reply or by eliminating superflous
unneeded lines.
