OK ... first the question about what e-mail client you are using IS the core of your issue ... Each mail client has its own way of setting the option to include original text in a forward or reply.
The Gun Collecting part of the reply is called a Tag Line or Signature. John collects antique pistols, I do a radio show (see below), Sealy is a free spirit, Speedo is, well ... Speedo ...
No need to be offended, and no need to attack someone.
So, do you use Outlook Express, Outlook, Eudora, or a web based service like Yahoo or Hotmail?
