OK, I was looking for that one.  It'd been mentioned before and I've
needed it MANY times and not recalled the key sequence.

However, didn't somebody have a more complex reply-quoting scheme that
involved piping the mail through some external utility?

I recall reading about something, but I don't recall when.

It's surely in Russell's mail archive, but that's not online and
searchable yet... and I don't think I'd have enough information to make a
time-efficient search.
