Hi All, I think the suggestion was that "It was an option" I would also like this option. From a business perspective it ensures that the entire conversation can be seen in a single document. Yes it costs a little more in storage but storage is cheap. Also other mail clients do exactly this. I suggest that you test with the more common email clients. The fact that you conflate this with with top posting Microsoft, google etc doing things is a manner which doesn't agree with your views isn't really relevant. Just as if you don't like a members of a particular race or sexual orientation whilst it might be relevant to you, it's not really relevant to including the history in a reply. Keep on track, standards (rather than convention) based and try to be a bit inclusive. Below is a test using a couple of common email clients" (Note the top the full history and top posting as it's the convention in my place of work ;-) #### Test 4 On Mon, 15 Jun 2020 at 08:32, Ian wrote:

Is it possible to set this somewhere or I will need to make feature request? There is no email client I am aware of that supports this. Too many people are in the habit of quoting the entire message when they reply, and if everyone does this then the result is a complete trace of the conversation, but that is a consequence of a) Microsoft's brain-dead decision to promote top-posting in Outlook, contrary to all previous practice, which was then slavishly followed by other software including Gmail, and b) users being either too lazy or too incompetent to trim the material they quote. This practice is not welcome on mailing lists, which already have the entire thread archived anyway, so we try to encourage people not to top-post and to trim their quotes to the relevant part of the message (very easy to do in Evolution). poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list gnome org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list |
