Request: Data on quoted email replies
2 points by elitheeli on April 2, 2012 | hide | past | favorite
Hi HN,

I'm collecting data on that line in email messages that indicates the replied-to message is below. Example: "On Apr 2, 2012, at 2:15 PM, John Smith wrote:".

I'm asking for 5 minutes of your time to collect as diverse a sample of those as you can from your inbox, anonymize them, and paste them here (or link to a gist or something).

Extra points for non-American-English ones (like "2 апреля 2012 г. 20:04 пользователь John Smith <jsmith@example.com> написал:").

I really appreciate it. If I get a large enough sample, I'll release a script to help deal with these in emails.

Thanks a lot!
