Quoting Part of an Email?

Dear DeeCee_517,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

Based on your description, I understand that you have a concern with “Quoting Part of an Email”.

What version of outlook are you using? I tested this on outlook client and OWA, however, it seems that there is currently no option to quote a small part of an email message. I suggest that you post this concern again on our Outlook · Community (microsoft.com). Other people may vote for it and make it more visible to the service team so that it may be considered for future upgrades. I'll keep an eye on this and inform you if I learn anything useful.

However you may quote the whole email by following these steps: In the Outlook client, Go to File > Options to open the Outlook Options dialog box > In the Outlook Options dialog box, please click Mail in the left bar, go to the Replies and forwards section, and then select "Prefix each line of the original message" from the When replying to a message drop-down list > Click the OK button to close the Outlook options dialog box. Then, when replying to an email in Outlook, it will automatically quote the original message by adding a blue line before it in the replying message.

Then, you may highlight the needed section of an email or simply delete the unnecessary part of the quoted email.

We look forward to hearing from you, please let me know and provide a more detailed description so we can provide you with more specific assistance. Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

At a guess, this requires that you manually delete part of the automatically quoted e-mail, leaving just what you want the recipient to see.

Which e-mail program are you using?
