I normally don't answer flames but this deserves a comment, since from 
your comment I gather you've seen similar from other people.
When I Reply To a forum message, I often select the pertinent text to 
which I am replying, rather than including the entire message. It just 
shortens things a little. The trouble with that is, of course, that I 
may be selecting a line from a reply to a reply to a reply, in which 
case I may have no real idea who posed the initial query to which I am 
replying.
Which is exactly what happened in the below-listed instance; I was 
replying to the "Is there a device" query, regardless who originally 
posed it.
Unfortunately, while my Reply sends the message to the list from when it 
came, the emailer lists the quote from whoever was the From person in 
the message to which I replied.
So, on behalf of (I hope) anyone whose emailer has erroneously credited 
a snipped quote to the wrong actual quotee,
Happy Thanksgiving.
