Yes. It's f$%^& annoying to read, and a waste of diskspace.

Well, good quoting should include all the text necessary..

And your answers will force the reader to read the complete message
first, because your comments do _not_ appear close to what you are
referring to. As for the "history", _any_ decent email client should be
able to sort the messages so you get the related messages grouped
together (If you don't have one, I'll be glad to sell you one ;)

I am a bit disappointed that you choose to ignore (common sense and) a
well established method. That attitude reminds me of the attitude I've
seen from a well known software company (no names mentioned...)  ;)
