Greetings, besides this mailing list, I also lurk on an italian one focused on web and internet accessibility. Some subscribers there told me that the only right (accessibility-wise) way of quoting email is to remove, or not add, all the "greater than" signs at the beginning of each line. In other words, instead of: >Marco wrote: >> I want to know something one is supposed to format quotes in this way: Marco wrote: I want to know something ...even if it breaks replies markup in all the email clients I know of, is not written in any netiquette guide I ever read and, basically, makes much, much harder to figure out who answered to who in long email threads. As far as I remember, I have never encountered this other "quoting" on this list. Therefore, I'd like to ask: * is it true that no screen reader can handle traditional email quoting, with all "greater than" signs appended at the beginning of each line? Are such messages really harder to read for blind users? * if this is a problem, how come the other rule is not followed on this list?
