Hi Lucio,
maybe you should use some mail filtering program, i.e. procmail to filter
incoming emails. For procmail, create ~/.procmailrc (chmod 600) with this
content to filter message:
:0 f :
|/bin/grep -v '^>[[:space:]]'
This will filter message through grep, which prints only lines, which do not
begin with ">" and space.
I think, it's better to keep the original message to know, on what message the
one answered, without long time searching the original message.
Does this help you? Be very carefull with this, because when someone sends you
signed message, the verification fails after you remove these lines.
