Usenet has nothing to do with Unix today.
Even your favourite software company still maintains active Usenet
newsgroups, whose members usually follow the quoting guidelines :-P

Oh, and I'm currently using Outlook for writing this mail :-)
It maybe takes 10 more seconds to reformat the mail in accordance to the
quoting guidelines.

All in all, I second Timo's opinion about this. If you want to quote certain
parts of a mail here, please abide by the mentioned guidelines.

Best regards,
