I don't know about the web, but it is certainly true on the Android gmail 
app. The quoted material is hidden beneath three dots. Tapping on them 
they can be expanded or deleted entirely. There may be other mail clients 
that also hide them from view.

On several languages, the article is named "Top-posting". Example:

<https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top-posting>

But what it says is not all correct. Also, neither Spanish or German 
articles link to the English article, and the English article does not 
have links to any other language, which is perhaps why Ulf Zibis did not 
find the German article.
