I think we should look for a way if we can remove the quoted body of prior e-mails directly on the mail-server side TBH.

I sincerely hope this is a joke suggestion, under no circumstances should we ever modify the body content of anything on the mailing list apart from amending footer.

Agreed. Content should stay untouched. I would never post to a list that would modify the content I send by even a single character. I agree with Neal as well. Too often comments on top-posting, quoting are quite bluntly pointing in a direction of stupidity from the poster's side. C'est le ton qui fait la musique. Personally I've learned more from friendly replies / URLs, than certain others. And I also know of new users that left after a single reply on our MLs. Gertjan Lettink a.k.a.
