Uh? It's certainly great to read your own name that often in other
people's emails, but OTOH I do remember my name quite well, so I don't
really need to be reminded of it that often.
Besides the fact that your emails become a lot more difficult to read
with a much lower signal-to-noise ratio [1] it also breaks the wrapping
post-el does when you press M-q on your your quotations. And that
sucks.
But anyway, the PA mailing list is certainly not the place to discuss
misguided quoting styles, so let's stop this now.

[1] Especially if emails of some user which do use this kind of silly
quoting and someone who does not use this, go back and forth. Just
have a look how chaotic the quoted part in this email looks like.
