Quoted-text stripping: read only the new reply
When a reply arrives with your earlier emails quoted underneath, Pink Post hides the quoted history and shows only what the person actually wrote. It recognises markers like "On … wrote:", "Original Message" blocks and forwarded headers. It is display-only; the stored email is unchanged.
Why it matters
Read only what they actually wrote, not five copies of your own pitch.
When showing a reply, Pink Post separates the new text from the quoted history (lines like "On ... wrote:", "Original Message" blocks, forwarded headers) and hides the quote. This is display-only; the stored email is never modified.

Under the hood
How it works
Marker detection
Common quote markers are detected in several languages.
Collapsed, not deleted
The quote is hidden behind a toggle and can be expanded.
Better labels
Auto-labels read only the new text, so your own pitch does not trigger a label.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Detects | "On … wrote:", Original Message, forwarded headers, > quotes |
| Effect | Display only |
| Used by | Thread view and auto-labels |

In a campaign
Where quoted-text stripping fits in link building outreach
Pink Post runs a link building campaign in seven steps, from prospect list to a live link that keeps being checked. Here is where this feature does its work.
- Step 1
Import prospects
Upload a CSV, Excel file or Google Sheet of sites and contacts; Pink Post dedupes, blocklists and verifies them.
- Step 2
Pick a playbook
Start from a guest post, link insertion, broken link, resource page, skyscraper or partnership template.
- Step 3
Write the sequence
Edit the pitch and one or two follow-ups with conditions, placeholders and spintax; test subjects with A/B variants.
- Step 4
Send safely
Emails go out at a safe pace with rotation, warm-up, limits and DNS checks.
- Step 5 · this feature
Handle replies
Replies land in one inbox with labels; follow-ups stop on reply.
- Step 6
Close the deal
Move the deal to Negotiating and Deal done with the agreed price.
- Step 7
Keep the link
Mark it Link live and let Pink Post re-check the page.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Why do replies include my whole email?
Most mail apps quote the previous message below the reply by default, so long threads repeat every earlier email.
Is anything deleted?
No, the full email is stored; only the display is trimmed.
What if detection misses a quote?
Expand or read the full message; the stored email is complete.
Does it work with Gmail and Outlook mailboxes?
Yes. Pink Post works the same with Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook, Zoho, Hostinger and any SMTP/IMAP mailbox you connect.
Is quoted-text stripping on the free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes it; plans differ by mailboxes, prospects, emails per month, users and live link checks. Free has 1 mailbox and 300 emails a month, Solo $19 has 3 mailboxes, Pro $39 has 10 and Agency $129 has 30.
How is quoted-text stripping different from a cold email tool?
Cold email tools are designed for sales pipelines. In Pink Post every feature feeds a link deal: replies move deals, deals hold prices, and live links keep being checked, so the result of the campaign is a list of live links with their cost.
