Yes. You also need to preserve the attribution lines (the lines inserted
for each quoted message like “Fred Nurk wrote:”, or similar) at each
level so we can see who wrote what.

You should consult the documentation for whatever you're using to
compose a message, looking for things like “auto-correct” or anything
else which suggests it will automatically change what you type.

Yes. All that should remain is the quoted text you're responding to, the
attribution lines for whatever you've quoted, and what you write
yourself.

No problems, thanks for the effort!
