sorry, that's likely a misunderstanding, my wording ("trim") was not
clear:

I meant that I don't like to _reformat long lines_ as Rob Gaddi
produced (although I bet Sylpheed is able to produce correct postings)
to enable me putting quote marks in front of.

I did _not_ mean that I'm too lazy to delete irrelevant lines of text.

After all, I wouldn't ask someone to stop top-posting or sending long
lines unless I have to tell also something on-topic. But if I reply
anyway, I dare to point out that I disagree with his posting style.
