Re: Seamonkey - Email - Reply button text quoting - Thanks to David E. Ross

2014-07-29 Thread Ben

Thanks, that was very nice to know,
Years ago, i had a very long back-and-forth email.
Me and the recipient had been 'replying' back and forth, and back and 
forth, and...

well you get the idea.

It was rather important for me, because i do like and need the visual 
representing that email
provides about what was quoted from who (i.e. quotes within quotes 
within quotes, etc)

shown as the vertical lines on the left hand side.

Just needed to know this info, so i can still quote all the info
(even if i just cut and past, and then edit and/or delete stuff like 
peoples signatures

if they repeat to often, perhaps making them available once only).

Thank you again,

Ben.

If the user is using plain text mail with the signature above the quoted 
material on replies, it's possible that SeaMonkey will unceremoniously 
drop all the content from replies. If that's the case, a workaround 
would be to use your pointing device to highlight the material you wish 
to quote before clicking the reply button. SeaMonkey offers selective 
replying, so highlighting the quotable material will bypass the dropped 
signature business altogether. You should then see all the quoted 
material intact.


Warmest regards and good luck with it. If I've described the scenario, a 
workaround might be for the user in question to reconfigure their mail 
client to place signatures at the bottom of quoted text in replies 
and/or forwards.


Cheers,

trane
