My email client (mutt) does not have such functionality either. I, the
caveman, simply bother to *manually* delete the unrelated content
every single time I reply to an email, and to quote only those bits
that I consider necessary to set the context. There is no automatic
thing that does this for me. Or if it has been invented, I, the
caveman, am not aware of it.

And BTW, netiquette has never been a matter of tools (most email
clients suck, and mine would be consiered at least "vintage" by the
vast majority of evolved humans out there, if not antique altogether),
but rather a quest for clarity, and it requires some effort on all
sides. That's why it is called "communication" and not "soliloquy".
