This works very well and was first suggested in this thread by
Christopher in <news:143f0f6c0607290847o77d2c9a7hf4a9b71b7d9a1c40 at mail.gmail.com>

PS: Please no "TOFU" (Text Oben, Fullquote Unten)! If there's nothing
to quote, then please don't quote anything. That's a lot better than
quoting EVERYTHING.

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar
