Quote Emails In Reply
complete
Julie Davis
Since we receive emails where people respond to quoted parts of our emails, we’d like to be able to reply to them the same way without copy and pasting because, after doing this, it messes up the formatting and looks too jumbled. And, if you overhighlight and hit the delete key, it archives the message (on the MacOS App).

I have the same problem. Specifically, I see support agents at large tech firms do this. I've tried cutting and pasting several times to respond to them, but it seems more trouble than it is worth as more often than not, the quotes get off or it over pastes.
It might help to see what the work around for this is so we can be clear about how to improve hoe to quote things. I've seen this done well on on discourse forums.
