[pct-l] Trimming messages....this will be my last complaint

Mon Apr 21 12:43:57 CDT 2014

I *like* untrimmed messages.  It allows me to know exactly which email the
person is responding to, without going back to read previous emails.

If you don't want to read the previous messages at the bottom of the email,
just don't scroll down.
