Ah, finally, someone who appreciates the digital life as it existed before  
the GUI-only applications! Emacs, baby, you can do anything in Emacs,  
including email and format it any way you want in any language you want  
with 100% control he says, only half joking. I went through deep  
depression when I was forced to switch to Outlook at work years ago, :-(  
Its never ending email threads are insane, but people somehow got used to  
it.

I'm afraid that we might simply need to get used to it here as well. Doing  
true format editing on a smart phone is an exercise for the masochists and  
all the tablets are not much easier. Price of progress, if it's worth  
giving back the moderator all the accumulated minutes he spends either  
rejecting or stripping the excess quotes from submissions.
