also removed the mozilla sig line.

found this ability when i selected an email to read. when read page opened,
below the email content is a box that reads;

   Reply, Reply to all, or Forward

clicking on "Reply" opened a reply box where there are 3 dot in a gray
back gound in lower left, hovering over it produced a pop-up with message
"Show trimmed content". clicking it produced a 'trimmed' printout of
original message. gmail's 'trimmed' is what rest of world calls
'quoted'.

therefore, all you gmail users no longer have an excuse that gmail will
not create an email with interspersed response and bottom response.

also, in looking thru settings, gmail is lacking in that there is no
selection for automatic trimmed replies. for shame.

therefore i suggest that there be an addition to the page on how to respond
be made along with a link at bottom of fedora's email that a 'newbie' gmail
user can be directed to.

such would go far in the bickering about gmail, top and bottom posting.

hth.
