efaq: Changing the included text prefix
11.1 How do I change the included text prefix in mail/news followups?
=====================================================================
If you read mail with Rmail, set the variable ‘mail-yank-prefix’. For
Gnus, set ‘message-yank-prefix’. For VM, set ‘vm-included-text-prefix’.
For mh-e, set ‘mh-ins-buf-prefix’.
For fancier control of citations, use Supercite (the Supercite
Manual (sc)Top.).
To prevent Emacs from including various headers of the replied-to
message, set the value of ‘mail-yank-ignored-headers’ to an appropriate
regexp.
