Thanks. Though one should also take the time to trim the previous
mail to the parts one actually responds to.

Yes, although it is less of a problem for (most!) people, as their
clients either display the text-only or the HTML version, so adding
an HTML version ‘only’ increases the size of the email (by about
150%). Bad quoting styles, however, are always visible.

Did I mention that asking for a return receipt for a mailing list post
is kind of…strange? That is, do you really want all >30k subscribed
users to acknowledge the receipt of your post?

Best regards,

Claudius
