Until it becomes such an unwieldy and nasty message... Sometimes I
take out some of the messages to avoid gargantuan replies.
Sometime I post inline to directly respond to certain viewpoints.
Otherwise you tend to get that nasty... "um.. you didn't answer that
question" syndrome.
I think quoting relevant info is good, not sure on the entire bit.
Some of the other mailing lists I am on suggest I do not quote every
little detail to avoid the gargantuan replies of doom. ;)
