Quoted text in email reply

[albatros]

This is a pre-sale question.

Can Secumail include quoted text in email reply? I cannot find that feature in documentation.
I'm using another iPhone app but it has that limit, so is pretty impossible to have a real "thread" withour quoting.

It can, but it is the "old school" type of quoting.  Since it is just text (not a markup like RTF), we use the ">" greater than symbol like used to be used in email many years ago.  e.g.

> this is what some quote text
> may look like.

Basically what you would do is to decrypt the a message, then select and copy the text you want to quote.  In the Encrypt screen you would choose "Clear and Paste Quoted".

You're right, "old school" :-)
Anyway I explained myself bad. I simply need to include original text in reply, it doesn't matter if plain text (so with "<") or RTF. I mean like a normal email client: my new text has to be written above the original text.
Currently using iPGMail (your competitor) I have to:
1. open Mail app;
2. copy encrypted text;
3. open iPGMail;
4. Decode -> Import -> input pw to do decryption
5. open generated txt -> copy all text
6. Compose -> paste.
7. Pasted text is normal text, so the email client of recipient will NOT show it as "original" text.

Aside problem in point n. 7, the whole procedure is very long and complex. Does Secumail brings advantages with respect to this?

Yes it is basically the same.  Because Apple does not allow a "plug-in" sort of thing with the Mail app, that is what you have to do to bring the encrypted text into SM, decrypt, move into the Encrypt, add your reply and encrypt and send.

That's the reason why iOS sometimes it's not a big deal.
Thanks for support.

iPGMail added a "reply" function in last update. It works good, have a look.
