For those who are still having murderous thoughts in 2012 (and likely later), pressing "CTRL-SHIFT-V" (paste quoted text) in the editor window will create a nice block of correct, editable ASCII text. You can use this as follows:
1) highlight the message body in Evolution's main window, CTRL-C 2) hit reply 3) After the "On 2012-09-18 ..... wrote:", hit CTRL-SHIFT-V 4) Wonder at how beautiful ASCII is 5) Promptly terminate the evolution-generated HTML ugliness below. 6) Wonder how longer it will take for devs to realize that inserting HTML in a PLAIN TEXT message is plain stupid. 7) ...
