I think if the subject is specific to the body of the text and any further
questions being asked can be left in the message after the reply, such as
below :D

Hello Derek
Some people find top quoting more of a pain to wade through before you reach
the new text. I've seen some posts on other lists where the trimming has
been so ruthless that the message itself makes no sense without reference to
previous messages." You end up with posts like
"Hello,
I find it annoying when people do that so I always avoid it.
Regards,
Fred.
"
That makes as much sense with no context as the famous Prunella Scales phone
call in Fawlty Towers, where her end of the conversation consisted entirely
of repeated: "ooh! Yes! Yes! I know!
Your suggestion of keeping only the message immediately below the one you're
writing seems so obvious, it's brilliant. I've tried it here.
Best,
Clive
