Quote from http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html

  Keep your email short and to the point.  If your email is more than
  about a page of text, chances are that it won't get read by very many
  people. It is much better to try to pack a lot of informative
  information (see above about asking smart questions) into as small of
  an email as possible. If you are replying to a previous email, it is a
  good idea to only quote the parts that you are replying to and to
  remove the unnecessary bits. This makes it easier for people to follow
  a thread as well as making the email archives easier to search and
  read. 

Hope that answers your question.

Thanks!
Pete
