I don't understand what it is about Outlook that prevents you from
typing something like, "I am responding to Rich Pasco's post, in which
he said ..."

If you assume that everyone got my original post, it shouldn't be
necessary to quote it in its entirety, just a few words as I did above.

If you do not assume that everyone got the original, then there is all
the more reason to properly attribute the quotation.
