I would like to have the same prior email reference contents in "Reply All" as I do in "Forward". How can I set this up?

When I click "Reply All", the following information is included in the new email message: On mm/d/yy hh:mm, "Person X" wrote: body... etc.

When I click on "Forward", it's the following:

Forwarded Message --------

Subject: "Subject" Date: Weekday, D MMM YYYY HH:MM:SS +0000 From: "Person X" To: Person Y, Person Z CC: Person A, Person B, Person C, etc.

Is it possible to setup Thunderbird so when I click "Reply All" I get the following info in the new message:

Original Message (or a similar text) --------

Subject: "Subject" Date: Weekday, D MMM YYYY HH:MM:SS +0000 From: "Person X" To: Person Y, Person Z CC: Person A, Person B, Person C, etc.

This will be very helpful as it will make sure no information is lost when replying to all.

Thank you and all the best! Alexander

You can create custom headers with the Change quote and reply format add-on. Add To: %%8 CC: %%9 as a 'Customized reply header' in the add-ons Options.

To Install, drag the Download link at the bottom of the page and drop it onto Tools/Add-ons in TB.

Thank you for the help!

Just one note, since someone with a Mac might have the same question - dragging and dropping the download link didn't work for me.

I had to: - Save the file - Open addons by clicking Tools => Add-ons - Click gear to open drop-down menu - Select Install Add-on from File

Cheers :)
