In a word, no.  Unless of course the is yao (yet another option) that
strips out said lines automatically when I read the message.  There
should be a better way of providing what is essentially a history of a
given mail exchange without doing that (including previous messages in
a current one).  If a message writer wants to archive outgoing
messages, I believe they can.  Of course, if there is an additional
line prepended to the included message ("here, peabrain, I know you
won't remember what you typed a couple days ago, so I'll include it
here.")  then it might be OK.
