Tweaks to the email reply filter

[r38y]

Am I correct in thinking this is used to parse the replies on GitHub? If so, what do you think about adding a way to strip the garbage from this:

I'm happy to do it but I wanted to make sure this filter was the correct place to do it.

I think the non-code solution is for that dude to delete the garbage from his email but that is sort of "you're holding it wrong".

Yep, it's one of the filters used to parse replies from GitHub. There's been some discussion and prototypes about stripping out signatures from replies, but when we tried it internally, some legitimate content would be stripped in some cases. We erred on the side of garbage sometimes rather than missing content. Hope that clears things up. 🍻

Yeah, I was looking to get rid of those extra headers but I guess it would be impossible to tell if they meant to add that in there or if it was from their email client. I guess I'll have to tell him he is holding it wrong. Or try to ignore it 😄
