    I use 'if subject contains 'lv-ab' then move to live-aboard folder.

    I can only quote in pocketmail by fowarding stuff.

    I know Norm does a lot of work on his posts.

    I think the key to quoting, is to at least quote the topic sentence or some
    version thereof if it is not contained in the Subject line. Sometimes one
    should change the subject line so that it reflects the topic being
    discussed.
