Subject: Automatically strip text from emails
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2023 06:02:13 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m1zfzgegy2.fsf@johnhaman.org> (raw)


Sometimes writers have over the top templates that I'd like to just remove so that I can focus on the substance of the conversation. One poster put this monstrosity in all of their emails:

  [[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
  [[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
  [[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

How can I automatically scrub this text from all emails I receive?
