Not at all, I have gotten so used to the fact that it doesn't "quote"
the original mail properly. Rather than using a line marker or
indentation it simply an exact copy of the original message in the body
and puts the responders email address at the top. 

When you are dealing with long emails that contain a number of replies
it becomes somewhat of a task to add them yourself as I have done here.
I'm so used to it now I didn't think to do it when I responded to Igor.

Noted and thanks for the pointer.
