Hi Adam,

thanks for your answer.


> Why do you want to quote all the header information?

Of course it's a matter of taste but if for example I receive a
forwarded email I want to know to what people the original email was
sent to. IMHO this is essential. I know that also e.g. Thunderbird does
not do this by default, but it can easily be tweaked.

I was using SC (long) before --- I will try to configure it.

I was hoping for a 'simple' solution. ;-)

Hi,

found the following configuration of supercite to work as desired:

;----------------------------------------------------------------------
(require 'supercite)
(add-hook 'mail-citation-hook 'sc-cite-original)
(setq sc-nuke-mail-headers  'keep) 
(setq sc-nuke-mail-header-list '("^From:" "^Date:" "^To:" "^CC:" "^Subject:"))
(defun sc-eref-insert-selected (&optional nix)
  (insert "---------- original message ----------\n"))
(defun sc-cite-region (start end &optional confirm-p interactive)())
(defun sc-select-attribution () (setq attribution ""))
;----------------------------------------------------------------------


Might be 'crude' (but works).
