Question about the "Include Original Message Text" option

[Jay]

I would like to be able to choose which messages to include past text with. As far as I can tell there is no way to handle that except by setting the option and having Outlook treat all messages the same. I realize I can just delete the previous text and that is what I currently do, but sometimes the mails can be long and I just want to send a quick reply to the person that has nothing to do with the contents. Does anyone know of a way to have outlook prompt for each reply if I want to include past text or not? They have five options under this setting; it would be nice if one was a prompt option. Thanks. .

Prompt is not possible. If you are deleting all the contents, select all
(ctrl+a) then start typing. Message length won't affect the time it takes to
do it.
