And the OT is not using GMail directly, as the mail headers show:

X-Yahoo-Newman-Id: 376455.68510.bm at smtp111.mail.ne1.yahoo.com
X-Yahoo-Newman-Property: ymail-3

The reply-to headers and the formatting was probably lost in the yahoo mail
conversion.

The Android GMail application allows inline quoting and respect
reply-to headers.
