Maybe it's a simple language problem: I don't know what you mean by 'mark'

Please check print screen attached to the topic.

I would like disable option/function which after marking some text and clicking reply is adding only this marked text in the previous mails in the history of the correspondance (thread) instead of whole correspondence. I need whole thread / correspondence even if I will mark some text. So I need turn off function shown on the print screen.

TB quotes the selected portion of a message in replies or forwards, so just make sure to not select anything before replying.
