No it is not.  Write something short at the top, like I just did, to
let them know that your response is below.

I see this argument a lot.  For me, this argument is rude.  It says,
"I can't be bothered to clean up the email that I am sending you.  I'd
rather clutter your mailbox and let you wade through the irrelevant
stuff."

Forcing you to scroll through the message that YOU are quoting, serves
to encourage you to trim it.

But wait... if you are using kmail, there is an elegant way to make
this easier for you and to allow you to treat your readers with
respect.  When you read an email and decide to reply, just highlight
the portion of that email which prompts your response, and kmail will
only quote your selection.  For me, this is one of kmail's best
features.
