content of Mail message with quoting?


  • Subject: content of Mail message with quoting?

> I'm asking Apple Mail for the content of a message, and Mail's reply is stripping out all indication of quoting levels. Where the Mail interface shows those colored vertical bars there is just nothing. I was hoping for a "greater-than" sign, as one would expect in a pure-text rendering of a mail message's content. Is there a way to get this? I'm sure this is a familiar issue: either there must be a well-known solution or this is just a well-known bug... :) Thx. m.

I ended up using the source instead of the content. This would not work for every message (heaven knows I wouldn't want to have to parse a format-flowed message by hand) but it should be okay for the message's I'm dealing with. m.
