I wouldn't mind, so much, if only it was used sensibly. But it rarely
is. You don't have just <p>what the person said</p>, but masses of
divs, brs, pseudo-MS-centric-CSS gumph, etc. And it gets even worse
when you quote back.
It's no-wonder MS favours the reply above and quote below technique, it
saves them the headache of rewriting the HTML.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
