For those of us who use Lotus Notes, there are a few settings that help 
when posting to mailing lists like this.

Send as text (avoid HTML)
File->Preferences->Mail->Internet
     Internet mail format: (you can set to "Text" or "Prompt Me")

Then make sure to reply with this action:
        "Reply to All with Internet-Style History"

Hope it helps,
