Can you explain what

EOF;
What I have worked out so far is:
if ( strpos( $correspondence , '=== To reply please type your
response ABOVE THIS LINE ===' ) ) {
$correspondence = substr(
$correspondence,
0,
strpos(
$correspondence,
'=== To reply please type your response ABOVE THIS
LINE
==='
)
);
}
The date time and business e-mail account name will be dynamic.
The type of pattern to match would be
- starting with "On"
- ending with "wrote:"
Thank you for any help / guidance.
