Apparently, at some stage Thunderbird had an option for that (it called it QuoteCollapse), and I saw a comment that it may have come back. Dunno if they meant internally, or as an add-on. You could search your settings for that, or in the about:config under-the-bonnet tweaking options. Other names for the same feature: suppress, mask, mute, hide Some mail clients have options for hiding quotes, and another separately, for signatures (the boilerplate text, not PGP signatures). I only see hiding them causing problems, hiding bits of messages that maybe they shouldn't. I remember one client that had a dimming option, it dulled out the quoted text (more than the mid-grey Evolution is doing for me, now, but I can adjust that), so that new text was *much* more prominent than quoted text, but all of it was still readable. And you could flick it on and off without reconfiguring the client. A useful feature, so long as it could actually tell the difference between old quotes and new content. Other's simply checkboarded odd and even generations of quotes between two different colour schemes. Too-many colours all over the place can be a bit overwhelming, but limiting it to three wasn't too bad (new text, one set of quotes, another set of quotes). Though people should really edit out very old message content. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
