There is no history. The e-mail is whatever the sender gave you. If

whatever the sender chose to include, and may not even be from prior
e-mails for the same discussion. Outlook cannot distinguish between
what you call "history" and whatever the sender put in the e-mail.

What you (and I before you) say is true, but Outlook 2007 DOES make an
effort at it. It seems able to detect included messages if Outlook's
top-posting conventions are followed. Nonetheless, it's still not
"history".
