Suggestion: use Page Down.
Better suggestion: get a mail client that hides quotations by default.
Gmail does this, for example.
If one is using Gmail, it is not harder to quote only the relevant
part when replying (highlight and hit reply).
What is disturbing is not having all those quotations, it is not being
able to quickly understand what someone is replying to. Quotations are
not here to decorate email. They are meant to add context to what one
is saying.

While I agree with you that *some* quoting is good, seeing as it allows
you to contextualize your comments, I believe that excessively quoting,
and in particular quoting the entirety of the original email,
is a cause for annoyance and that one should therefore only quote the
snippets from the original email that are relevant to one's new email.
Just my two cents,
