↳ In-reply-to » Not making THREADING the default view of e-mail clients and thus teaching users that e-mail is “chaotic” (if you get a lot of mail, it becomes unusable without threading) and “needs” full quoting all the time was one of the worst mistakes ever.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Today I actually received an e-mail à la “I reply directly to your questions down below in red”. Not the same, but I was still happily surprised. With my own plaintext reply I got rid of his nice color… ;-)

The only upside with TOFU is that you can easily forward an entire conversation to somebody else. But these chains tend to be quite horrible to read anyway.
