Description Fridtjof Busse 2007-01-23 20:30:30 UTC
I'd like to have the ability to costumize the attribution-line Evolution uses when replying to mail.
Instead of the annoyingly long "On $date at $time, $name wrote:", I'd like to use something like "* $name:".
This is not even possible when changing the localization to a different string, as "*" won't work.
Almost every other email-program I know lets me do that, why not Evolution?
Seriously, this is one of the things that actually keeps me from using Evolution.
