There is no earthly reason to quote an entire mail on top of each of your mails. If your mail client doesn't allow you to delete lines[1], maybe you could bottom quote instead. Some people don't like it, but it's better than forcing your readers to wade through lines and lines of irrelevant stuff which they've read already, before getting to your point...
