One could also argue that a good email client should automatically hide long quotes. In fact, I guess many people are not even aware of the problem because their client does this.
But then what is the point of including the text in the first place if it is understood it is only there to be hidden? Besides, personally, I don't want my e-mail client to attempt (and, short of it truly having an understanding of what is being said, inevitably fail) to understand which parts of an e-mail are of interest to me and which parts are not. No, I agree completely with Malcolm: not taking the time to quote ONLY what is of relevance to provide the immediately relevant context for a point one wishes to make is a failure of communication and, indeed, an abuse of other's time.
