Should the mail server also correct people's spelling errors, fix bad
grammar, and look up solutions for technical problems for them too?
Mail servers serve mail. If people have the bad habit of not trimming
them quotes, and end up bottom-quoting at the end of seven pages of
quoted material nine levels deep, that's a problem with the writer not
the mail server.
In vain, the old bad habit is seamlessly continued
here.
Am I the only one here, who finds this a nuisance?
No, you are not the only one.
