Yes, KMail does it fine if I'm viewing the message with KMail.  But if I've
deleted the message from KMail and go to the archive with the browser and
use the reply link on the archive webpage,  the message is not quoted.
I did some Google'ing and this does appear to be a limitation of the 
mailto: link in HTML for any web site; mailto: just can't do that, I
think.  (I also noticed that the PlanetCCRMA archive doesn't have a reply
link.)  So it appears that cut/paste, manual quote is the only way. 
Thanks for the reply anyway,
Marv
