So what are you calling quoted text? Quoted text that I/m used to is
actually quotes with " " marks. Do you remove the persons sig? Or do
you just remove the lines pre-pended with <?
You accidentally put this both above and below the text.
Thunderbird, my email program, shows text quoted from the message I'm
replying to with > at the beginning of each line. However, on incoming
messages, it has the text indented and a line running down the left side
of the window, rather like a blockquote. On most mailing lists I've
been on, it's customary to remove any sig or boilerplate added by the
list's software. It's also considered polite to remove any text from
the original message that's not relevant to your reply, to make it
easier to find what it is you're talking about. And, if you intersperse
your reply with the original text, it's also good manners to remove any
text that comes after your reply, so that readers can tell that there's
no point wasting time looking at what remains.
