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
