Gmail is a great example :/ True, though I'm not sure how bottom quoting could be easily automated, at least of any complexity. You would still need to break up the quoted parts to properly respond. I've gotten so used to doing it that it is second nature. But there is no doubt most people are just lazy (or ignorant) and I've seen plenty of emails with many, many useless quoted lines at the bottom. Of course we are getting quite off-topic here and therefore are breaking another form of netiquette ;) Regards, Ryan
